I need to replace my drivers side cam bolt while I'm repairing the engine. I have the valves on the way and I hope that there is not an issue with the seats.
Here is a link to the bolt that I think that I need
Ford Explorer Ranger Mustang 4.0L Engine Camshaft Sprocket Hex Head Bolt OEM NEW | eBay
however the "what it fits" data only goes back to 2001 or so, mine is a 1997 and in the E-bay ad it never states if it is the bolt for the left drivers side head which would be RH thread if I am correct. Any insight would be appreciated.
By the way @koda2000 I ordered the valve spring compressor tool today. Thanks for the info and advice
