Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine code and vehicle application before installation, since timing components are engine-specific. Replace related wear items during timing service as needed, and follow the factory timing marks and service procedure for the exact engine configuration. Because this kit is a standard replacement timing set, proper alignment and torque procedures are important for reliable operation after installation.
