CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR REPLACEMENT - BANK 1 (RIGHT SIDE) EXHAUST - SECOND DESIGN
Tools Required: EN-48313 Timing Chain Retention Tool
Important: To identify a camshaft drive design, refer to Camshaft Timing Drive Design Identification. Locations
Removal Procedure
1. Remove the lower intake manifold with the upper manifold. Service and Repair
2. Remove the right camshaft cover. Service and Repair
3. Remove the right intake and exhaust camshaft position sensors. Service and Repair
4. Remove the right intake and exhaust camshaft position actuator solenoids. Service and Repair
Important: Rotate the crankshaft balancer bolt in a clockwise direction ONLY.
5. Rotate the crankshaft balancer using the balancer bolt until the camshafts are in a neutral (low tension) position. The camshafts will be parallel with the camshaft cover rail (1).
Important: Ensure that the camshaft timing chain and the camshaft position actuators are marked for proper assembly.
6. Use a paint stick to create an alignment mark (17) on one of the timing chain links and the adjacent tooth on the exhaust camshaft position actuator (18).
7. Use a paint stick to create an alignment mark (16) on one of the timing chain links and the adjacent tooth on the intake camshaft position actuator (15).
Notice: A wrench must be used on the hex of the camshaft when loosening or tightening in order to prevent component damage. Failure to prevent the torque reaction against the timing drive chain can lead to timing drive chain failure.
8. Use an open end wrench on the hex cast into the left intake and exhaust camshafts and rotate the camshafts toward each other in order to create slack in the chain between the actuators.
9. Unscrew the EN-48313 so that the legs of the tool are retracted.
10. Insert the EN-48313 between the camshaft actuators, rearward of the timing chain until the top line that is scribed in the body of the tool (1) is adjacent to the top surface of the cylinder head (2). This is the approximate installed position.
Important: The engine front cover is removed for clarity in the following graphics, but NOT required to perform the procedure.
11. Ensure that the feet (2) on the legs of the tool are facing the front of the engine.
12. Partially expand the legs (1) of the EN-48313 by turning the T-shaped handle clockwise.
13. Continue expanding the EN-48313 until the feet (1) contact the timing chain. Do not tighten at this time.
Important:
• Ensure that the foot (1) of the EN-48313 is engaged into one of the link pockets to prevent chain slippage during tightening of the EN-48313.
• Do not allow the body of the EN-48313 to rotate when tightening the T-handle.
14. Hand tighten the EN-48313.
Notice: A wrench must be used on the hex of the camshaft when loosening or tightening in order to prevent component damage. Failure to prevent the torque reaction against the timing drive chain can lead to timing drive chain failure.
15. Use an open end wrench on the hex cast into the body of the EN-48313 and hand tighten the T-handle.
Notice: A wrench must be used on the hex of the camshaft when loosening or tightening in order to prevent component damage. Failure to prevent the torque reaction against the timing drive chain can lead to timing drive chain failure.
16. Use an open end wrench on the hex cast into the right intake and exhaust camshafts and rotate the camshafts towards each other in order to create slack in the chain between the actuators.
17. The EN-48313 is now properly installed to hold the timing chain in position.
Notice: A wrench must be used on the hex of the camshaft when loosening or tightening in order to prevent component damage. Failure to prevent the torque reaction against the timing drive chain can lead to timing drive chain failure.
18. Use an open end wrench on the hex cast into the camshaft in order to prevent engine rotation when loosening the camshaft position actuator bolt.
19. Remove the right exhaust camshaft position actuator bolt.
20. Remove the right exhaust camshaft position actuator. When removing the actuator, place the chain on the engine block side of the actuators.
21. Rotate the actuator in order to align the opening in the actuator reluctor wheel with the cam sensor boss in the front cover, to allow actuator removal.
22. If removing both the exhaust and intake camshaft actuators, the timing chain can be draped over the EN-48313 once the actuators have been removed.
Installation Procedure
1. Ensure the proper camshaft position actuator is installed. Observe the body of the camshaft position actuator for the EX marking (1). The marking is for an exhaust camshaft position actuator,
2. Ensure the proper timing mark is used. Observe the outer ring of the camshaft position actuator for the triangle marking (2). The marking is for alignment to the highlighted timing chain link on the right side of the engine,
Notice: A wrench must be used on the hex of the camshaft when loosening or tightening in order to prevent component damage. Failure to prevent the torque reaction against the timing drive chain can lead to timing drive chain failure.
3. Use an open wrench on the hex cast into the camshaft in order to prevent camshaft rotation when tightening the camshaft position actuator bolt.
Important: Ensure that the camshaft timing chain and the camshaft position actuators are marked for proper assembly.
4. Align the exhaust camshaft actuator alignment mark (18) to the timing chain alignment mark (17) made during disassembly.
5. Ensure that the intake camshaft actuator alignment mark (15) and the timing chain alignment mark (16) are also aligned.
6. Position the exhaust camshaft actuator to the camshaft and install the actuator bolt hand tight.
7. Remove the EN-48313.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
8. Tighten the right exhaust camshaft position actuator bolt.
Tighten
Tighten the bolt to 58 Nm (43 lb ft).
