Crankshaft Installation Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Buick Rendezvous. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- If removed, install the crankshaft sprocket drive pin. Lightly tap the pin in place with a small soft face, bronze/plastic, hammer until it bottoms in the hole.
- Gently lower the crankshaft into position in the cylinder block.
NOTE:
The crankshaft sprocket drive pin must be set to the proper depth. Installing the crankshaft sprocket drive pin too deep can lead to damage to the crankshaft sprocket and extensive engine damage.
