It was also noticed on the WP as well as on the TB tensioner. The colour and the material looked to be the same one as the melted potting from the CRK/CYL sensor which is normal on all of NSX but can’t remember seeing so much debris on the cam pulleys. WP and tensioner will be replaced with the new one and will try to clean the cam ...
Despite the dirty valve covers, the internal engine components such as camshaft holders, holder plates, etc were reasonably clean that is very good news. Backed off all of the valve adjusters and removed the TB. Unfortunately, all four camshaft pulleys showed some sort of black residue on the ...

Normally, I find several corroded pipes during the hose replacement service but it’s been a while since last time ...
