!!! IMPORTANT: Ensure oil thrower is installed facing away from the distributor gear. Install distributor drive gear and oil thrower. Compress the tensioner, adjust guide to remove slack, and tighten the two 8mm bolts.ĭouble check that everything is still lined up properly, and make corrections as necessary. To accomplish this, loosen the 8mm bolts in the passenger side guide (the shorter one). !!! IMPORTANT: The tensioner must be fully compressed. Install chain guides, being sure not to let tensioner pop out. Tensioner is oil pressure fed and a leaking gasket could allow chain slack, leading to premature wear or break. !!! IMPORTANT: Be sure to use new gasket when installing tensioner. These two links must align with the timing marks on the sprockets. To install new chain, inspect chain to find the two brightly colored gold links. Both sprockets should have a small dot (timing mark) on the right side of the sprocket when viewed from the front. The new cam sprocket will have 3 guide holes on the mounting flange, and you will need to align the knock pin with hole #2. The new crank sprocket can only be installed one way, by aligning groove with keyway. Remove chain guides, tensioner, chain, and finally both sprockets. Remove oil thrower and distributor drive gear. IMPORTANT: Before removing oil thrower and distributor drive gear, note direction of oil thrower. Remove P/S pump and A/C compressor if necessary. Remove harmonic balance using correct puller (can be rented from local auto parts store). remove oil pump/distributor drive shaft, noting the orientation of the drive shaft. Remove lower front shield to remove oil pump. Remove valve cover, fan shroud, fan, drive belt, water pump, 4 10mm bolts from bottom front of head, and 3 10mm bolts from front of oil pan. I'll assume you are going to replace the entire set (sprockets, guides, etc.) which I got from O'Reilly for $79.
