Dodge Grand Caravan Timing Chain
Timing chain on Dodge Grand Caravan models is responsible for timing the rotation of the camshaft and crankshaft, this is very critical for engine valve timing. Located at the front of the engine the Timing Chain has a tendency to need lubrication for premier performance and is an element that can be found in engines with higher displacement. Over the years especially from the early 1990s up to date, metal Timing Chains have been favoured over rubber timing belts owing to their long life and rarely requiring replacement. Timing chains in Dodge Grand Caravan experience a slight amount of wear and tear, however, any problems with lubrication or the tensioner and chain guides may present a rattling noise coming from the front of the car's engine. In pushrod engines, a short chain drive is preferred because of its ability to negotiate torque reversals more efficiently and is therefore, less noisy and much more reliable than the gear drives.

Dodge Grand Caravan Timing Chain Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How do you inspect and replace a timing chain on Dodge Grand Caravan?A:In order to examine the timing chain, the first step sanctioned is the removal of the timing chain cover. If an engine has many miles on it, or if there is visible damage to the chain, or if the amount of freeplay beyond the two small pins that secure the chain exceeds one inch, then a new timing chain should be installed because as the chain wears, the engine will not idle smoothly, lose power, and experience decreased fuel efficiency, and the chain can 'jump' timing or break which will damage the engine. Loosen the tension of the timing chain cover and bolt down the vibration damper so that crankshaft is turned such that the arrow on the crankshaft sprocket aligns with the top and of the camshaft sprocket arrow should be resting at the bottom. To do so, undo the camshaft sprocket bolt with some measures and then with your hands cautiously push the camshaft sprocket from the dowel pin with the help of two big screwdrivers. Timing chains and sprockets should be replaced in sets: when installing a new timing chain, eliminate the crankshaft sprocket with the aid of a puller and install a new one, such that the key in the crankshaft fits into the keyway of the sprocket. Check timing chain dampener for signs of cracking and replace it, if required; use solvent to wash timing chain and sprockets and if possible blow them dry with compressed air. Zebras should be checked for signs of wear and damage, in particular, deformed, chipped, pitted or cracked teeth will be apparent here. For installation, bring the camshaft to bottom with the dowel pin, fix the timing chain with the camshaft sproket, engage the timing chain with the crank sprocket so that the marking touch each other. If the crankshaft to be disturbed, rotate it in the direction of arrow until the crankshaft sprocket arrow is pointing upward and if the camshaft is to be rotated temporarily fit the sprocket and rotate camshaft until the marking on the camshaft sprocket is at the bottom and arrow will point each other simultaneously the reference link mark of chain will be in time with the marks. Place the camshaft sprocket bolt and fasten it properly according to the indicated torque, with engine oil to lubricate the area for wear and tear on the chain and sprocket, put back the timing chain cover and do the rest of the assembling in the opposite manner to its removal.
