4.0L SOHC Engine - Front and Rear Components









4.0L SOHC Engine - Lower Components













NOTICE: If used as a leverage device, the fuel rail may be damaged. Care must be taken when working around the fuel rail.

NOTE: During engine assembly it may be necessary to check the bearing clearances and crankshaft end play. For additional information, refer to Engine System - General Information Procedures.

NOTE: Before engine assembly, use silicone gasket remover and metal surface prep and a suitable plastic or wooden scraper to clean the sealing surfaces. Follow the directions on the packaging. All sealing surfaces must be clean. Make sure coolant and oil passages are clear.

81. Turn the crankshaft one revolution clockwise.

82. NOTICE: Do not rotate the engine counterclockwise. Rotating the engine counterclockwise will result in incorrect timing of the engine.

NOTE: The Crankshaft TDC Timing Tool must be installed on the damper and should contact the engine block. This positions the engine at Top Dead Center (TDC).

Install the Crankshaft TDC Timing Tool.





83. NOTE: Camshaft timing slots are off-center.

NOTE: Position the camshaft timing slots below centerline of camshaft.

Install the Camshaft Sprocket Holding Tool and the Adapter for 303-564 on the rear of the RH cylinder head.





85. Install the Timing Chain Tensioner.





86. NOTICE: The RH camshaft sprocket bolt is a LH-threaded bolt. Turning the bolt in the wrong direction can damage the bolt.

Tighten the bolts.

1. Tighten the Camshaft Sprocket Holding Tool top 2 clamp bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).

2. Tighten the camshaft bolt to 85 Nm (63 lb-ft).





87. Install a new washer and the RH timing chain tensioner.
- Tighten to 44 Nm (32 lb-ft).





88. NOTE: Do not tighten the Camshaft Sprocket Holding Tool top 2 clamp bolts. The camshaft sprocket must rotate freely.

Install the Camshaft Sprocket Holding Tool and the Adapter for 303-564 on the front of the LH cylinder head.





89. NOTE: Camshaft timing slots are off-center.

NOTE: Position the camshaft timing slots below centerline of camshaft.

Install the Camshaft Holding Tool and the Adapter for 303-577 on the front of the LH cylinder head.





90. Install the Timing Chain Tensioner.





91. Tighten the bolts.

1. Tighten the Camshaft Sprocket Holding Tool top 2 clamp bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).

2. Tighten the camshaft bolt to 85 Nm (63 lb-ft).





92. Install a new washer and the LH timing chain tensioner.
- Tighten to 44 Nm (32 lb-ft).





93. NOTE: Install the hydraulic lash adjuster in the same positions from which they were removed.

Install the hydraulic lash adjusters.





94. Rotate the crankshaft until the cam lobe on the cylinder being serviced is in the up position.





95. NOTE: Lubricate the parts with clean engine oil.

Using the Valve Spring Compressor, install the roller followers in their original positions.





96. Inspect the RH and LH exhaust manifold gasket mating surfaces for flatness. For additional information, refer to Engine System - General Information Exhaust Manifold Cleaning and Inspection.
