Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.

Tools Required

J 22102 Crankshaft Sprocket Installer

Important: Ensure the following conditions exist:

•	The camshaft and the crankshaft timing marks are aligned

•	The camshaft dowel pin and the camshaft sprocket holes are properly aligned

•	The gears and the chain mesh properly

1. Use the J 22102 in order to install the crankshaft sprocket.




Notice: Do not hammer the camshaft sprocket onto the camshaft. To do so may dislodge the rear camshaft plug and damage the camshaft.

2. Ensure the timing marks are aligned and install the timing chain and sprocket to the camshaft.

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.

3. Install the camshaft sprocket retaining bolts to the camshaft.

Tighten
Tighten the retaining bolts to 30 N·m (22 lb ft)

Important: The old crankshaft position reluctor ring sensor must not be reused.

4. Install a new crankshaft position reluctor ring to the crankshaft. Refer to Crankshaft Position Sensor Reluctor Ring Replacement .
5. Install the engine front cover to the engine block. Refer to Engine Front Cover Replacement .
6. Install the Crankshaft Position Sensor. Refer to Crankshaft Position Sensor Replacement in Engine Controls.
