Usually made of metal, a camshaft is a rotating component having pointed cams that convert rotational movement to reciprocal movement. On an internal combustion heat engine, a camshaft is a system that controls both the fuel input and the exhaust fumes expulsion. This camshaft is linked to the crankshaft by a belt, chain, or gear system. Backfiring and popping are some signs of a bad camshaft.

A camshaft regulates the intake of air in an engine. It won't break unless you ignore routine maintenance and oil changes, allowing grime and dirt to accumulate on the valves. It takes a lot of time and effort to repair a camshaft.
