The dowel pin on the cam went MIA somewhere in the process of removing the timing cover, which had broken off as the main gear was flapping about after the bolts backed themselves out of the cam. The threads on the screws, which were holding it in place, were mostly ground down, as you can see here. We are not exactly sure how this happened, given that the cam and timing set are bone stock and so most likely have never been out of the car. Since the timing set greatly affects ignition timing, we thought we found our elusive pink elephant. View Related Article
