Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1995-2002 Lincoln Continental, left. Fits 1993-1998 Lincoln Mark VIII, left. When replacing the timing chain, Cloyes recommends replacing the chain tensioner, sprockets, and guides together because these components work together to keep the chain tight and properly supported. Verify application details in the catalog before installation and confirm mounting hole alignment, guide length, and left-side placement.
