Installation Procedure
- If previously removed, install the bank 2 secondary timing chain components.
Note: The bank 1 camshaft intermediate drive-shaft sprocket (2) is marked with the letters RB and ’FRONT’, and the bank 2 sprocket (1) is marked with the letters LB and ’FRONT’ ensure
the correct sprocket is used and the FRONT text is facing forwards when installed.
- Ensure the bank 1 camshaft intermediate driveshaft sprocket is selected and orientated correctly.
Caution: Refer to Fastener Caution in the Preface section.
- Install the bank 1 camshaft intermediate driveshaft sprocket (2) and tighten bolt to
65 N·m (48 lb ft).
- Ensure that the crankshaft sprocket timing mark (1) is aligned with the indexing mark (2) on the oil pump housing.
- Install the primary timing chain (1).
- Wrap the primary timing chain around the large sprockets of each camshaft intermediate driveshaft sprocket and the crankshaft sprocket aligning the brightened chain links.
- The bank 2 camshaft intermediate driveshaft sprocket timing mark (1) will align with a bright plated primary timing chain link (2).
- The bank 1 camshaft intermediate driveshaft sprocket timing mark (1) will align with a bright plated primary timing chain link (2).
- The crankshaft sprocket timing mark (1) will align with a bright plated timing chain link (2).

- Install the primary timing chain upper guide (1).
- Install the primary timing chain upper guide bolts (2) and tighten bolts to
23 N·m (17 lb ft).
- Ensure that the primary timing chain tensioner is being installed.
Note: To reset the tensioner, use a suitably sized flat-bladed screwdriver (1) to wind the plunger in a clockwise direction, into the tensioner shaft (2).
- Reset the primary timing chain tensioner.
- Install the tensioner shoe assembly (1) into the primary timing chain tensioner body (2).
Note: If
EN-46112 pins
(1) is not inserted into the tensioner body, the plunger will remain in the locked position and no tension will be placed on the
timing chain.
- Compress the shoe assembly into the body (2) and lock the primary timing chain tensioner by inserting
EN-46112 ins
into the access hole in the side of the body.
- Slowly release pressure on the primary timing chain tensioner. The primary timing chain tensioner should remain compressed.
- Install a new primary timing chain tensioner gasket (1) to the tensioner (2).
- Install the primary timing chain tensioner bolts (3) through tensioner and gasket.
- Ensure the primary timing chain tensioner mounting surface on the engine block does not have any burrs or defects that would affect the sealing of the new gasket.
- Place the primary timing chain tensioner (2) into position and loosely install the bolts (1) to the engine block.
- Verify the proper placement of the primary timing chain tensioner gasket tab (1).
- Tighten the primary timing chain tensioner bolts (2) to
23 N·m (17 lb ft).
- Release the primary timing chain tensioner (1) by pulling out
EN-46112 pins
(2) and unlocking
the tensioner shaft.
- Verify the primary and bank 2 secondary timing chain timing mark alignments (1-12).
- Remove
EN-46105 tool
from bank 2 and bank 1 cylinder head camshafts.
- Install the Bank 1 secondary timing chain. Refer to
Secondary Camshaft Drive Chain Replacement - Right Side.
