Timing Chain: Removal and Installation: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
CAUTION:
- After removing timing chains, do not turn the crankshaft and camshaft separately, or the valves will strike the pistons.
- When installing camshafts, chain tensioners, oil seals, or other sliding parts, lubricate contacting surfaces with new engine oil.
- Apply new engine oil to bolt threads and seat surfaces when installing camshaft sprockets, camshaft brackets, and crankshaft pulley.
NOTE:
It is not necessary to remove the rocker covers or intake manifold collector to remove or install the timing chain(s).
