Product Details

Cloyes timing guides are CAD designed and manufactured with advanced materials, then tested for function and durability to meet or exceed OEM performance requirements. The 9-5340 timing chain tensioner guide serves as the track that keeps the timing chain aligned between the crankshaft and camshaft, helping maintain proper valve timing in engines used across Ford F-150, Mustang, Explorer, and related platforms. Cloyes also recommends replacing the chain tensioner, sprockets, and guides together when servicing the timing chain system.
