Bad Cam?
My engine won't seem to run right since the first start up. I'm wondering if the cam didn't break in correctly and wiped a lobe. What is the easiest way to check? If I dissect the oil filter and don't find alot of metal, would this mean the cam is OK? I followed the reccomended break in procedures on intitial start up. How common is break in failure on a new flat tappet cam?
Could it be a 10114182? If so, it is a Gen V 454, 4 bolt 1991 (or later). Hope that helps..
