CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR REPLACEMENT - BANK 1 (RIGHT SIDE) INTAKE (FIRST DESIGN)
Removal Procedure
Important: To identify the camshaft drive design, refer to Camshaft Timing Drive Design Identification. Application and ID
1. Remove the right exhaust camshaft actuator.
2. Remove the intake camshaft position actuator bolt.
3. Remove the right intake camshaft position actuator. Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Replacement - Bank 1 (Right) Exhaust
Installation Procedure
1. Ensure the proper camshaft position actuator is installed. Observe the body of the camshaft position actuator for the IN marking (3). The marking is for the intake camshaft position actuator.
2. Ensure the proper timing mark is used. Observe the outer ring of the camshaft position actuator for the R and triangle marking (2). The marking is for the alignment to the highlighted timing chain link on the right side of the engine.
3. Locate the intake camshaft position actuator to the camshaft and loosely install the bolt.
Notice: A wrench must be used on the hex of the camshaft when loosening or tightening in order to prevent component damage. Failure to prevent the torque reaction against the timing drive chain can lead to timing drive chain failure.
Important: Use an open-end wrench at the camshaft hex to prevent camshaft/engine rotation.
4. Tighten the camshaft position actuator bolt.
5. Install the right exhaust camshaft actuator.
