Timing Chain and Sprockets Installation
^ Tools Required- J5590 Installer
1. Install the crankshaft balancer key into the crankshaft keyway. The crankshaft balancer key should be parallel to the crankshaft or with a slight incline.
2. Align the keyway of the crankshaft sprocket with the crankshaft balancer key.
3. Use the J5590 in order to install the crankshaft sprocket.
4. Rotate the crankshaft until the crankshaft sprocket alignment mark is at the12 o'clock position.
Important: Install the camshaft sprocket with the alignment mark at the 6 o'clock position.
5. Install the camshaft sprocket and the camshaft timing chain.
6. Look to ensure that the crankshaft sprocket is aligned at the12 o'clock position and camshaft sprocket is aligned at the 6 o'clock position.
Important: Do not use a hammer to install the camshaft onto the camshaft. To do so may dislodge the expansion cup plug (camshaft rear bearing hole).
7. Install camshaft sprocket bolts.
Tighten the camshaft sprocket bolts to 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.).
8. Install the crankshaft position sensor reluctor ring.
1. Align the keyway on the crankshaft position sensor reluctor ring with the crankshaft balancer key in the crankshaft.
