Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Toro 524 snowblower cam timing, toro 524 snowblower, cam shaft
QuestionHi, I have a Toro 524 snowblower that I am rebuilding the engine on. Its model number is 38040 and was manufactured in 1981 with a 5hp Tecumshe engine. I cannot find how the cam timing is supposed to be set. There is a mark on the cam gear but no mark on the crank gear. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
AnswerRyan...
Its there...look very closely at the camshaft gear.. it may be a straight line or small dot. It needs to line up with the mark on the cam shaft.
You gave me a great idea for my next weekly video tips video...
let me know either way if you can or can not find it please...I will find an engine and get you a pic if you cant find it.
