Chevrolet Corvette Timing Chain
The Timing Chain found in Chevrolet Corvette automobiles plays the valuable role of guaranteeing that the crankshaft and the camshaft rotate in harmony with a view of ensuring correct valve timing which is mandatory for any efficient car engine. In contrast to belt drives typical for the low-power engines, the Chevrolet Corvette uses a metal timing chain that, in addition to providing maximum reliability and a longer operational life, can stretch over the years because of wear-out. Some of the Chevrolet Corvette models that uses timing chains include some of its pushrod engines since it is preferred due to its long chain drive and also since the engines are less noisy compared to gear drives. Chains, although, are not as common as belts in causing problems but they have their problems regarding lubrication and tensioner and these problems can cause performance drop. Maintenance plays a vital role in the lifetime of any mechanical and electronic system of the Chevrolet Corvette and this includes the timing chain system whose replacement should be done using quality spare parts.
Each OEM Chevrolet Corvette Timing Chain we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Chevrolet Corvette Timing Chain Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install Timing Chain on Chevrolet Corvette?A:Pull the multiplug connector out of the negative battery terminal, then pull up and slide off the rear engine cover, then turn off the engine coolant and oil, remove the drive belts and tensioners. Extract the air filter housing and intake duct also, then unplug the upper and lower radiator hoses, the cooling fans and the water pump. Take out the crankshaft balance and, for all but the 5.7L engines, the Camshaft Position sensor and the sensor harness. The timing chain cover being the subject of removal it is not important to fully remove the Oil Pan, just unbolt it.For the removal of the oil pan, the following steps need to be followed:1. Draw the oil pan to front cover bolts with the aid of the plucker when bringing the extraction tool towards the car.2. Remove it from under the car. Fully remove the alternator along with the mounting bolts that are usually on the top of it. Take out the timing chain cover bolts; then take off the cover from the block, try to pry it with a putty knife if it is jammed. Locate and pull out the oil pick-up tube and Oil Pump taken out and check for the gears, chain and dampener for any signs of wear of damage. Relax the camshaft sprocket bolt(s), screw the crankshaft balance bolt into the crankshaft and with your fingers rotate the crankshaft until you get a alignment of the timing marks and ensure the same is set when the number one piston is at TDC. There is one or more bolt which needs to be unbolted at the end of the camshaft Camshaft sprocket and chain should be removed as a single unit. If replacing the tensioner, remove from the engine. Check damages and wears on camshaft and crankshaft sprockets, and if is required, take off the sprocket of the crankshaft by the puller. Timing chains should always be replaced together with the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets when it is being replaced. Then, using a gasket scraper, remove old gasket material from the cover and the engine block; about the crank shaft sprocket with the Woodruff key; and push it to fit on the crank shaft. Cinch the timing chain tensioner and place it in proper position and install the tensioner and fix the bolts tightly. The next step is to turn the sprockets in such manner that the coinciding timing marks are placed at the corresponding positions; in case if not, the sprocket must be rotated until the mark on the crankshaft is pointing upward, i. e. at 12. Place the chain around the crankshaft sprocket with the mesh and place the camshaft actuator or sprocket and align the timing mark. Take out the tensioner retaining pin and fasten the camshaft position actuator solenoid valve. Then lubricate the chain with clean engine oil and fit the oil pump and the oil pick-up tube, though at this stage you might want to change the crankshaft front oil seal. Remove the timing chain cover and fit a new gasket and loosely re-install the cover to make certain that it is in the correct alignment. If alignment tools are not possible, take a straight edge and measure from the rail of the oil pan to the timing chain cover on both sides and if uneven, make adjustments to be as even as possible. Turn the cover bolts until they are aligned, and place RTV sealant where there is contact between the timing chain cover and the cylinder block, and then fit the oil pan. Last but not the least, pour the coolant into the engine and oil into the crankcase and start the engine and search for any leaks.
