Timing Component Alignment Marks: Locations

Timing Component Alignment Marks




^ Using the EN-47719, fully collapse the tensioner, and place he tensioner retaining pin into the retaining hole (1).




^ Align the crankshaft timing mark (1) to the timing mark on the bottom of the timing chain tensioner (2).
^ Hold the camshaft sprocket with the timing chain hanging down and install the timing chain to the crankshaft gear.
^ Align the timing mark on the camshaft position actuator gear (4) with the timing mark on top of the timing chain tensioner (3).




^ Align the dowel in the camshaft position actuator with the dowel hole in the camshaft.
^ Install the camshaft position actuator bolts.

Notice: Use only a Torx Plus(R) Bit when removing or installing the camshaft position actuator fasteners (1). The Torx Plus(R) design differs from typical Torx(R) fastener. Use of a standard Torx(R) bit on Torx Plus(R) fasteners may result in a rounded out fastener head or incorrect faster torque.





Important: DO NOT use any type of threadlocking compound on the camshaft position actuator bolts. Usage of a threadlocking compound on the threads could lead to contamination of the camshaft position actuator, possibly resulting in potential damage to the actuator.

^ Draw the camshaft actuator onto the camshaft using the bolts.

Tighten the bolts to 16 N.m (12 lb ft).
