Timing Chain: Installation

  1. With camshaft installed, place timing chain over camshaft sprocket so that it hangs below sprocket. Align marks on camshaft and crankshaft sprockets. See Fig 1.
  2. Align dowel in camshaft with dowel hole in camshaft sprocket and install sprocket. Use mounting bolts to draw sprocket onto camshaft. Tighten fasteners to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Check sprocket alignment, lubricate chain and install remaining components.
