Almera engine bit? - bathtub tom
I've got a '53 reg 1500 Almera.
Can anyone tell me what the solenoid or motor looking thingy in the cam cover does, next to the oil filler with an electric plug connection?
Just curious, there ain't no Haynes available yet.

That would be the cam timing solenoid. It controls the oil flow to the inlet cam's actuator.

That Implies it's a V.V.T. I never knew that. Thanks
