camshaft oil non return valve

Post by mustanguk »

which way round does it go ball bearing facing down or up? is it to stop oil from draining away from the camshaft or to drain down the oil?

it's to stop the oil draining down to the sump, it should have an arrow for the direction of flow but it may not.
