- Ensure that the left secondary
timing chain tensioner (1) is being installed.
- Compress the left secondary
timing chain tensioner shoes with your hand.
- Lock the left secondary timing chain tensioner by inserting a
piece of wire (2) into the access hole in the side of the left secondary
timing chain tensioner (1).
- Slowly release pressure on the left secondary timing chain tensioner
shoes. The left secondary timing chain tensioner should remain compressed.
- Position the secondary
timing chain tensioner between the camshafts.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
- Install the secondary timing chain tensioner bolts.
Tighten
Tighten the secondary timing chain tensioner bolts to 12 N·m
(106 lb in).
- Wrap the secondary timing
chain around both secondary drive sprockets.
- Align the exhaust sprocket drive pin (1) between with the
two darkened links (2).
- Align the intake sprocket drive pin (4) with the single
darkened link (3).
- Fit the intake and exhaust
camshaft sprockets with the secondary timing chain onto their respective camshafts
and align the drive pins in the camshafts.
- Install the camshaft sprocket bolts.
Tighten
- Tighten the camshaft sprocket bolts to 25 N·m (18 lb ft).
- Tighten the camshaft sprocket bolts an additional 45 degrees
using the J 36660-A
.
- Remove the locking wire from the secondary timing chain tensioner
allowing the tensioner shoes to expand and apply pressure to the timing chain.
