Belt Wrench for Cam Gear and Method of Use Thereof

Inventor Sean D. Minnie of Signal Hill, CA has created a timing gear belt wrench that holds cam gear in place while performing engine services.

As anyone who performs a lot of mechanical work will attest, nothing beats having the proper tool for a job. Such specialized tools are often found in the field of internal combustion engine repair and rebuilding. It is extremely critical in this field that not only are parts tightened and placed with extreme accuracy, but it is also important that no marks or imperfections are left behind. This requirement usually eliminates the practice of holding items with pliers or wrenches while bolts are tightened or loosened. As such, items like cam gears remain extremely difficult to remove and replace. Inventor Minnie has created a means by which cam gears can be easily removed and replaced while being held in a secure manner.

This clever new invention is easy to use for both professionals and do-it-yourselfers. The tool is can be used in any position or angle, prevents slippage, and gives the mechanic better control. The use of the Belt Wrench for Cam Gear provides several distinct advantages over conventional cam gear holding devices without worry of self-inflicted physical harm or damage to the engine components themselves.
