This way I won't waste money on prematurely/unnecessarily swapping bank 2 if it's not necessary. Cam gear cost is now $210 after tax/shipping so I may do it anyway, just to get the updated cam gear in case the fault on the old design is a single event failure and could happen at any time in the future.
If you really want to go deep, just take apart that phasor, clean it, and put it back together. That's precisely what I would do in your situation.

I remain convinced that in all these cases a small particle of schmutz makes its way into the spool valve to block its operation. I felt it the first time I tinkered with my friend's engine.
