A cam lock clip is a very common cam actuator. It can be found in almost all cam mechanisms on sale and most are adjustable to fit any kind of cam-type mechanism. This article explains what the cam lock clip is used for, its basic parts and how it works. The Wog Ball Valve is also called cam lock nut or cam lock joint and is used to prevent oil from entering the oil tank during a drain procedure.


The cam lock clip is designed to be compatible with different types of cam-type mechanisms. It features an inner sleeve that is open at one end, while having a seal at the other. The inner sleeve is equipped with holes that are drilled through it and the top surface of the sleeve is grooved so that water cannot enter the grooves. The grooved top surface then traps the oil as the cam opens and shuts.


Most cam locks have a threaded end that is provided by the manufacturer. The threads are then turned to match the threading on the wog ball valve. Thus, the two parts will screw together and form a solid unit. It can be very useful when replacing cam mechanisms since it provides a firm attachment to the cam lock wrench.


The wog ball valve is used to regulate oil flow into the engine. To ensure that the oil does not leak when the cam lock lever is engaged, the wog ball must have a sealed surface that prevents oil from entering the grooves. The grooved surface that holds the wog ball is called a cam lock seat. This seat allows oil to pass through but keeps the wog ball sealed so that it stays put.


In order to disassemble the cam lock clip, you must first remove the cam mechanism. Your next step will be to remove the cam lock assembly. Here you will need to use your open-end wrench to loosen all the nuts that are holding the assembly in place. If you have any sort of questions concerning where and ways to use you could try these out, you can call us at our own website. Once they are loosened, you can remove the cam lock assembly from the engine. You may need to use a reciprocating screwdriver to remove the cam lock cylinder first.


Next, you should remove the wog ball from the cam clip. You can do this with your open-end wrench just like you did with the cam lock cylinder. Then, you can remove the worn cam mechanism. However, you must make sure that the mechanism is not damaged when you do this. You can do this by undoing the cam lever.
