    Default AEM adjust. cam gear

    need help adjusting AEM cam gears, if anyone can give me a detailed step by step. They came with the car I bought, and the previousl owner advanced the intake and exhaust by 5 degrees ( or 10 degrees, because on the gear it says each mark = 2 degrees?????) Car now is throwing misfire codes....so I assuming the cams are opening too soon, i just need to go back to stock settings. thanks

    thanks for the links, still confusing for me though...so do I adjust with the timing belt on by moving the crankpulley, or timing belt off??? And do I move the outer part of the cam gears (the teeth part) or the inner gear bolted to the cams, I'm trying to set back to 0 degrees...

    no, do not remove timing belt, loosen the 3(or 5) cam gear bolts and then rotate the cams themselves using the bolt in the middle.
