until you complete the following actions:
2.1. | The number one cylinder is at top dead center (TDC) of the compression
stroke. |
2.2. | The timing marks on both sprockets line up. |
- Remove the camshaft sprocket
bolts.
- Remove the camshaft sprocket and the camshaft timing chain.
- Use the J 5825-A

Installation Procedure
Tools Required
J 5590 Installer
- Install the woodruff key
(crankshaft balancer) into the crankshaft, if removed.
Caution: Wear safety glasses in order to avoid eye damage.
- Align the keyway of the
crankshaft sprocket with the woodruff key (crankshaft balancer).
- Use the J 5590
and
a hammer in order to install the crankshaft sprocket.
- Ensure that the number 1 piston is still at TDC of the
compression stroke.
- Align the timing marks on both sprockets.
Ensure that the crankshaft sprocket alignment mark is in the 12 o'clock
position.
- Install the camshaft sprocket
and the timing chain.
The camshaft sprocket alignment mark must be in the 6 o'clock
position.
- Ensure that you align the camshaft sprocket and the crankshaft
sprocket alignment 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.
- Install the camshaft
sprocket bolts.
Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 25 N·m (18 lb ft).
- Install the crankshaft
position reluctor ring and the engine front cover. Refer to
