Secondary Timing ChainNJEM0093CAUTION:
+After removing timing chain, do not turn crankshaft and
camshaft separately, or valves will strike piston heads.
+When installing camshafts, chain tensioners, oil seals, or
other sliding parts, lubricate contacting surfaces with new
engine oil.
+Apply new engine oil to bolt threads and seat surfaces
when installing camshaft sprockets, crankshaft pulley,
and camshaft brackets.
+When removing the oil pans, oil pump assembly and tim-
ing chain from engine, first remove the crankshaft posi-
tion sensor (TDC sensor).
Be careful not to damage sensor edges.
+Do not spill engine coolant on drive belts.
