But with the variable cam sprockets i would not suggest the cam seals. You require a special wrench to hold the cam to tighten it.
Thanks Caveman.
The actuator repair is a shop job from what I hear you guys say, and I'll be in Orillia this weekend if you are free to confirm. I'll pull the belly pan now so it doesn't collect oil and book an appointment with Davenport to have the actuator repaired, likely Thurs next week.
