2. Remove the camshaft sprocket bolts.
3. Remove the camshaft sprocket and timing chain.



4. Use the J 8433 , J 41816-2 and J 41558 in order to remove the crankshaft sprocket.



5. Remove the crankshaft sprocket.



6. Remove the crankshaft sprocket key, if required.

6. Install the camshaft sprocket and timing chain.



7. If necessary, rotate the camshaft or crankshaft sprockets in order to align the timing marks.

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.

8. Install the camshaft sprocket bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the camshaft sprocket bolts to 35 N·m (26 lb ft).

9. Install the oil pump. Refer to Oil Pump, Screen, and Crankshaft Oil Deflector Replacement .
