9. PROCEDURE AND APPLICATION GUIDE
Timing Chain Basic instructions:
The following instructions are for guidance only, please refer to the vehicle manufacturers
instructions for the vehicle/engine being worked on.
• Turn the crankshaft in its normal direction of rotation to just before TDC and remove the
TDC blanking plug from the block. insert component G and gently turn the crankshaft until
component G fits into the crankshaft
• Insert component F into the slots in the back ends of the Camshafts as show.
• Push the cam chain tensioner back into its retracted position and lock with component D
• The chain tensioner, chain slippers, chain and sprockets can now be removed.
• Installation is the reverse of the above. Once properly assembled turn the crankshaft by
hand 2 turns in the normal direction of rotation and refit component G.
• Check the timing by ensuring that component F can be fitted. If component F can not be
re-fitted adjust the timing as follows.
• With component G in place and the crankshaft locked in TDC cylinder number one position
retract the chain tensioner and lock with component D.
• Loosen off the inlet and exhaust camshaft pulley bolts being sure to hold the camshafts
steady using a suitable spanner on the hexagons provided on the camshafts. Warning: do not
use the camshaft locking or holding tools to loosen or tighten the camshaft fixing against.
• With the pulleys loose turn the camshafts so that component F can be installed
• With both component G and F in place remove the chain guide that sits between the 2
camshaft pulleys and remove the chain tensioner locking pin so that the tensioner takes up
any slack in the chain.
• Fit component B and A as shown.
• It is important that component A sits on the cylinder head top face and is bolted down.
• Tighten the camshaft pulley bolts to the recommended torque ensuring the camshafts are
held steady with a suitable spanner placed on the hexagons provided on the camshafts.
Warning: do not use the camshaft locking or holding tools to loosen or tighten the camshaft
fixing against.
• Remove all locking tools and rotate the crankshaft by hand 2 complete turns. Ensure
components G and F can be fitted. To check the Camshaft sensor position use component C
