Step first, remove the engine front cover and the
Crankshaft position reluctor ring; it is recommended to install a new engine front cover afterwards. Turn the Crankshaft around until the number one cylinder is at the top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke and the marks for the timing are perfectly synced for both sprockets. Then, you will need to eliminate the camshaft sprocket bolts, then camshaft sprocket, then camshaft Timing Chain. The Crankshaft gear installer (J 5825-A) can be used to remove the Crankshaft sprocket and, if needed, woodruff key (crankshaft balancer) as well. For the installation, put the woodruff key (crankshaft balancer) into the Crankshaft, if it was taken off, align the keyway of Crankshaft sprocket with the woodruff key, and use the Crankshaft gear installer (J 5590) and the hammer to fixing the Crankshaft sprocket. Make sure that the no 1
Piston is at tdc, while compressing, and align the timing marks to the sprocket on both, so that the Crankshaft sprocket will have marking at the 12 position. Mount the camshaft sprocket and Timing Chain such that the camshaft sprocket aligns in the 6 o-clock position. Close to the camshaft sprocket bolts to 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.), align camshaft and Crankshaft sprocket alignment marks, and finally, install the Crankshaft position sensor reluctor ring and the engine front cover.
