exactly one half the speed of the crankshaft.
Rotate the crankshaft clockwise after TDC. Rotate the camshaft until the gauge reads that it is at full lift. Then rotate the crankshaft until the inlet valve of number one cylinder is just off full lift position, and record the number on the timing disk. Continue to rotate the crank clockwise until the valve has opened and then closed again, and record this number. Add these numbers together and divide by two to find the number that is the full lift position. This will time your camshaft.
the camshaft, is most likely 180 degrees off, if you, sett the crankshaft, to tdc pos, then you take off, the timing belt, and rotate, the camshaft 180 degrees, and asemble it, i
A tachometer works the same on almost all cars exept motorcycles. Now first you need to know what a camshaft is. If you don't search it on google. The RPM's or Rotations Per Minute, Are the rotations your camshaft makes. Quick extra: your cranckshaft rotates twice as fast as your camshaft makes. So when you are revving at 3000 rpm your cranckshaft wil rotate at 6000 rpm.
It is a variable valve timing innovations from toyota, where in power and fuel efficiency can be optimized by varying the timing of the camshaft with respect to the crankshaft of an engine,by retarding or advancing the camshaft by a certain phase angles.A conventional engine has it's camshaft rotate half the crankshaft rotation and the performance of a such engine would be in it's peak efficiency for a single speed only.Engineers developed a technology to overcome this in-efficiencies by introducing variable valve timing where camshaft rotation can advance or retard with respect to the crankshaft,hence optimising performance and fuel efficiency.
The camshaft closest to the intake manifold (closest to the passenger cabin) is the intake camshaft on the dual camshaft Saturn engines.

What is the year make and model you are asking about. Most gear driven cams are counter rotating in relationship to the crankshaft, while most belt or chain driven engines the cam and crank rotate in the same direction. Either way, there is no real benifit to rotating together or in different directions. The result is the same.
NO. If the camshaft is broken it will not run. If the camshaft is worn it will run poorly.
The camshaft TDC mark is located on the camshaft side of the pulley wheel. When the mark is level with the front reinforcing strip on the camshaft cover the camshaft will be at TDC.
On the camshaft
The cost of a camshaft will vary depending on the vehicle. The average cost for a camshaft is between $150 and $200.
