Toyota MR2 Camshaft
The MR2 Camshaft of a Toyota opens and closes the intake and exhaust valves to ensure that the engine draws in the air-fuel mixture and expels the burned gases precisely in time with piston travel. The Camshaft is an iron or steel rod that carries oval-shaped lobes. Their high spots press upon followers or rocker arms, forcing each spring-loaded valve to open at the precise angle of the crankshaft for the four-stroke cycle of intake, compression, power, and exhaust. A timing belt or chain connects the crankshaft and Camshaft, rotating at half crank speed in a four-stroke configuration to maintain the correct timing. Many production designs place the Camshaft in the cylinder head. This reduces the number of moving parts over block-mounted designs, although exact placement is engine architecture dependent. The shaft, which regulates valve lift and duration, is vital to combustion efficiency and engine output. Thus, every Toyota MR2 engine produced will have one of these components. Correct timing of your Camshaft will ensure that each of the Toyota MR2 cylinders gets the correct charge and clears exhaust. This will enable you reliable Toyota MR2 performance.

Toyota MR2 Camshaft Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to measure and inspect camshaft and Camshaft Bearing on Toyota MR2?A:Using a micrometer, measure the camshaft lobe height of each lobe on each camshaft; if any lobe height is less than the specified allowable minimum, replace that camshaft. Measure the diameter of the center journal; if it is less than the specified standard diameter, replace the cam. Inspect the bearings for flaking or scoring, and if any of the bearings are damaged, replace the Cylinder Head and the camshaft supported by the damaged bearing. Measure each camshaft oil journal oil clearance by cleaning the bearing caps and camshaft journals, then laying a strip of Plastigage across each journal. After cleaning, install the bearing caps with the arrows pointing toward the front and tighten each bolt to the specified torque before removing the caps. Measure the flattened Plastigage; if the measured clearance between any journal and bearing cap exceeds the specified maximum, replace the camshaft. If the clearance is greater than the specified maximum, replace the head. Caution: Do not turn the camshaft while the Plastigage is in place.
