What is the main difference between a crankshaft and a cam shaft
Tech A states to check the camshaft for lift, the cam must be removed from the engine. Tech B says to check for a bent camshaft, the cam must be removed and placed onto a set of V-blocks and checked with a dial indicator. Who is correct?
Tech a says that the push on the piston top during the power stroke is transferred to the crank shaft through the connecting rod. Tech b states that the power is transferred from the piston through the valve train to the camshaft. Who is correct?
