Stuff a clean cloth into the chain tunnel to keep any parts from dropping into the crankcase.
Caution! The crankshaft may be turned while the camshafts are removed. Always pull the chain taut while turning the crankshaft. This avoids kinking the chain on the lower (crankshaft) sprocket. A kinked chain could damage both the chain and the sprocket.
