Timing Chain and Sprockets Installation
^ Tools Required- J 22102 Crankshaft Sprocket Installer
1. Properly install the crankshaft key into the crankshaft keyway, if removed.
2. Install and align the keyway of the crankshaft sprocket with the crankshaft key.
IMPORTANT: If the sprocket(s) are being replaced, replace both sprockets to ensure that timing chain centerline alignment is maintained.
3. Use the J 22102 in order to install the crankshaft sprocket.
4. Rotate the crankshaft until the crankshaft sprocket alignment mark is at the 12 o'clock position.
5. Rotate the camshaft until the camshaft alignment pin is in the 3 o'clock position.
6. Install the camshaft sprocket and timing chain.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the camshaft alignment pin is engaged with the camshaft sprocket slot.
IMPORTANT: Install the camshaft sprocket with the alignment mark in the 6 o'clock position.
IMPORTANT: The sprocket teeth must mesh with the timing chain in order to prevent damage to the camshaft retainer. IMPORTANT: Do not use a hammer to install the camshaft sprocket onto the camshaft. To do so may dislodge the rear camshaft plug and/or damage the camshaft.
7. Look to ensure that the crankshaft sprocket is aligned at the 12 o'clock position and the camshaft sprocket is aligned at the 6 o'clock position.
8. Install camshaft sprocket bolts.
Tighten the camshaft sprocket bolts to 30 Nm (22 ft. lbs.).
NOTICE: Refer to Fastener Notice in Service Precautions.
9. Install and align the keyway of the crankshaft position reluctor ring with the crankshaft key.
IMPORTANT: If the crankshaft sensor reluctor ring has been removed from the crankshaft, a new crankshaft sensor reluctor ring must be installed.
10. Use the J 22102 in order to install the crankshaft position reluctor ring onto the crankshaft until the ring is completely seated against the crankshaft sprocket.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the J 22102 contacts the crankshaft balancer contact area of the crankshaft position reluctor ring in order to prevent bending or damage to the crankshaft position reluctor ring teeth.
IMPORTANT: It should be necessary to apply only light force in order to install the crankshaft position reluctor ring with the J22102.
