The camshaft controls the timing of the opening and closing of the engine’s valves, ensuring that air and fuel enter the cylinders at the correct times for optimal combustion. A worn or damaged camshaft can lead to improper valve timing, resulting in poor engine performance, reduced fuel efficiency, and increased emissions. Regularly inspect the camshaft for signs of wear, such as uneven wear patterns, excessive play, or surface damage, and replace it as needed according to your vehicle’s maintenance schedule, typically every 100,000 to 150,000 miles. Maintaining a healthy camshaft ensures accurate valve timing, enhances engine performance, and prolongs the lifespan of your vehicle’s engine by preventing issues related to improper valve operation.
