Dodge Neon / Neon SRT-4. Manual — part 235
CAUTION: When installing the intake rocker arm
shaft assembly be sure that the plastic spacers do
not interfere with the spark plug tubes. If the spac-
ers do interfere rotate until they are at the proper
angle. To avoid damaging the spark plug tubes, do
not attempt rotating the spacers by forcing down
the shaft assembly.
(4) Verify that hydraulic lash adjuster swivel feet
are still in place.
(5) Tighten bolts to 28 N·m (250 in. lbs.) in
sequence shown in (Fig. 28).
(6) Install the cylinder head cover (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER
HEAD/CYLINDER
HEAD
COVER(S) - INSTALLATION).
CAMSHAFT
DESCRIPTION
The camshaft is made of nodular iron with five
bearing journal surfaces and three cam lobes per cyl-
inder. Provision for a cam position sensor is provided
on the rear of the camshaft. The camshaft position
sensor bolts to the rear of the cylinder head and also
controls camshaft thrust. A hydrodynamic oil seal is
used for oil control at the front of the camshaft.
OPERATION
The camshaft is driven by the crankshaft via drive
sprockets and belt. The camshaft has precisely
machined lobes to provide accurate valve timing and
duration.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - CAMSHAFT
END-PLAY
(1) Measure camshaft end play using the following
procedure:
(a) Mount dial indicator C-3339 or equivalent, to
a stationary point on cylinder head (Fig. 29).
(b) Using a suitable tool, move camshaft to rear-
ward limits of travel.
(c) Zero the dial indicator.
(d) Move camshaft forward to limits of travel
and read dial indicator.
(e) End play travel: 0.13–0.33 mm (0.005–0.013
in.).

CLEANING
Clean camshaft with a suitable solvent.
INSPECTION
(1) Inspect camshaft bearing journals for damage
and binding (Fig. 31). If journals are binding, check
the cylinder head for damage. Also check cylinder
head oil holes for clogging.
(2) Check the cam lobe and bearing surfaces for
abnormal wear and damage. Replace camshaft if
defective.
NOTE: If camshaft is replaced due to lobe wear or
damage, always replace the rocker arms.
(3) Measure the lobe actual wear (unworn area -
wear zone = actual wear) (Fig. 31) and replace cam-
shaft if out of limit. Standard value is 0.0254 mm
(0.001 in.), wear limit is 0.254 mm (0.010 in.).
INSTALLATION
(1) Lubricate the camshaft journals with oil.
(2) Carefully install the camshaft into the cylinder
head. Reposition the PDC and heater tubes for clear-
ance (Fig. 30).

ELECTRICAL/IGNITION
CONTROL/CAMSHAFT
POSITION SENSOR - INSTALLATION).
(5) Measure camshaft end-play (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CAMSHAFT - STAN-
DARD PROCEDURE).
NOTE: Camshaft must be installed before installa-
tion of the camshaft seal.
(6) Install camshaft seal (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/
