Camshaft for Citroën

The camshaft is a central component of the engine distribution system responsible for controlling the opening and closing sequences of the intake and exhaust valves. By managing the valve lift and duration at precise intervals, it facilitates the intake of air and fuel mixture and the evacuation of combustion gases. This component ensures the engine maintains correct synchronization, which is necessary for proper combustion cycles and overall power output.

This specific part is identified by part number 0801EQ and is engineered for use in Citroën engines. It features a specific lobe geometry that dictates the valve lift profile according to the engine design specifications. The component is integrated into the cylinder head assembly where it interacts with valve train components to translate rotational motion into linear valve movement.
