748 Rocker check?

Hi

set out to check the rockers on my 748 today, but came to a bit of a dead end. I'm hoping someone can get help me going again!


I tried to pull the vertical cams, but the inlet would only pull out about 1/4 inch. and the exhaust wouldnt nove more than about a 16th! I undid both end caps, and removed the LHS ones, and pulled the cam, with drive wheel still in place, out on the belt side. I had removed the belts!

I read somewhere that the cams should be pulled out about 1/2 inch, which would let me see the rocker faces and cam lpbes to look for wear. I can see the openers OK on the one that has come out a bit, but cant see great deal on the other one. I cant see much of the closers on either.

Something is fouling or whatever to stop me getting them out, but I cant see what!

Anyone got any ideas where I am going wrong? I cant find any instrustions on this anywhere. Also any pointers as to what I should see when I do get them out would be usefull too!

Thanks

Douglas
