Timing Chain Alignment Marks

For complete service procedures for this component refer to Timing Chain Service and Repair See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Timing
Components/Timing Chain/Service and Repair/Removal and Replacement

Install both secondary chains onto the idler sprocket and align the two plated links on the secondary chains to be visible through the two lower
openings on the idler sprocket (4 o'clock and 8 o'clock). Once the secondary timing chains are installed, position the secondary camshaft chain
holder 8429 (1) to hold the chains in place for installation.
Align primary chain double plated links with the timing mark at 12 o'clock on the idler sprocket and align the primary chain single plated link with
the timing mark at 6 o'clock on the crankshaft sprocket.
Lubricate the idler shaft and bushings with clean engine oil.

NOTE: The idler sprocket must be timed to the counterbalance shaft drive gear before the idler sprocket is fully seated.

Install all chains, crankshaft sprocket, and idler sprocket as an assembly.
