Default Preload camshaft crank???
Did I miss something when I changed my camshaft oil seals? Today when I took the car into the Lexus dealer for the high idiling problem I've had since I changed the timing belt, the tech said that I may have put the crank shaft back on incorrectly. He said something about "preloading" the crank?

Do any of you Techs know about this? JPI -- I'm sure you know about this. What is he talking about?
