Timing Chain & Sprockets: Installation

  1. Install components in reverse order of removal. Oil pump drive chain has correct tension if chain gives under slight thumb pressure midway between sprockets. Adjusting shims are available for adjusting oil pump drive chain tension.
  2. Ensure No. 1 piston is still on TDC of compression stroke. When installing timing chain and camshaft sprocket, be sure camshaft flange is correctly positioned. See Figure.
