I got the same engine. And need both of them change. Thinking about just junking it. Probably will cost to much to fix it. Man just can't get a break 💔
So service info tells me to have my cams in the 12 o clock position how do I rotate them to align the bolt holes without moving the timing marks out of the 12 o clock position?
@@DemonEmbarasser Did you know that the toyota logo is actually a NEDDLE AND THREAD because toyota used to make sewing machines. BMW logo is a spinning airplane propeller because they started out as an airplane propellor company. The oldest manufacturing company in the world is Beretta arms that started out making gun barrels in the 1400's.
Just changed head gaskets on my 2.7 and need to time it, it’s confusing how do you it while the motors still in the car? And if you didn’t place any marks before hand
The tension in the system causes that. We need only assure that the alignment of crank and cams are as described in this video when installing the new chain.
Sorry, but you're just wrong. We also need to keep it from rotating during the removal if we're at all concerned about letting the pistons smack into the valves and destroying the engine. That's what makes this repair unnerving for a novice, at least on interference engines. I did this procedure 8 months ago after a ridiculous amount of research. A tiny bit of movement as witnessed on the cam sprockets is normal, I'll give you that, but they'd move much further and cause catastrophic damage if they weren't secured before removing the final fasteners.@@jeromebarry1741
The timing chain and the water pump should be changed at the same time so as not to have to go back in later and remove all the components such as the radiator to get to one or the other again. A lot of $$$ in labor hours at the shop to get to either component. May as well do both at the same time.
I got a 2008 Dodge Charger that I bought when it first came out and my water pump fucked up, instead of paying $1,500 to fix it and everything I might as well paid an additional thousand dollars and had a new engine rebuild, it's like buying a brand new car again
is this the same for the two different chains ?? and I'm not talking about the main chain and cam chains, my main chain is smaller. My 2.7 has a main chain with smaller teeth, it's also flex fuel so I don't know if that's why it's different. any input???
