4 The procedure outlined below assumes that the camshafts
are locked in the TDC installation position with special lock-
ing tools as shown earlier.
4 lnspect timing chain sprocltets and chain. Inspect guide rail
and tensioner rail
(arrows) for grooves caused by chain con-
tact. Replace any part that is worn or damaged.
NOTE-
If any sprocl(ets are being replaced due to wear, the chain
should also be replaced.
If the crankshaft sprocket requires
replacement, the oil pump
drive sprocket and chain must be
removed. See
119 Lubrication System for oilpump removal
information.
- If removed, reinstall timing chain tensioning rail, reversing
rail, and guide rail.
If tensioning rail was removed, replace O-ring at tensioning
rail oil guide.

lnstall timing chain and intake sprocket to intake camshaft on
right cylinder head. While pressing in on chain tensioner rail,
confirm camshaft flange bores (arrows) are centered in
sprocket mounting slots.
NOTE-
Pressing in on rail will remove slack and reposition sprockets.
If
necessarx remove sproclets and align bores centrally.
lnstall intake camshaft sensor gear with notch upward (ar-
row) at right cylinder head.
- Finger tighten mounting screws.
- lnstall remaining sprocket bolts to intake camshaft finger tight
at left cylinder head.
- Press timing chain tensioning rail against timing chain. lnstall
plastic wire
tie, to hold rail against chain.
- lnstall lower timing chain cover:
Clean sealing surfaces and check sleeves are properly
seated.
