Timing Belt: Service and Repair

TIMING BELT 
REMOVAL 

CAUTION:  The 3.5L is NOT a freewheeling engine. Therefore, care should be taken not to rotate the camshafts or crankshaft with the timing belt
removed.

1. Disconnect negative cable from battery.
2. Remove radiator fan module (Refer to 7 - COOLING/ENGINE/RADIATOR FAN - REMOVAL).
3. Remove accessory drive belts (Refer to 7 - COOLING/ACCESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS - REMOVAL).
4. Remove crankshaft damper and front timing belt covers (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/ENGINE BLOCK/VIBRATION DAMPER - REMOVAL) and

(Refer to 9 - ENGINE/VALVE TIMING/TIMING BELT/CHAIN COVER(S) - REMOVAL).

5. Mark belt running direction, if timing belt is to be reused.

CAUTION:  When aligning timing marks, always rotate engine by turning the crankshaft. Failure to do so will result in valve and/or piston
damage.

6. Rotate engine clockwise until crankshaft mark aligns with the TDC mark on oil pump housing and the camshaft sprocket timing marks are between

the marks on the rear covers (Fig. 143).

CAUTION:  Align the camshaft sprockets between the marks on rear belt covers before timing belt removal or damage to valve and/or pistons
could occur.

7. Using a ink or paint marker, mark the exact position of the camshaft sprocket timing mark relative to the two timing marks on the rear timing

cover.

NOTE:  When timing belt tensioner is removed from engine, always store in the vertical (plunger facing upward) position.
