Mopar 53022314AD Engine Camshaft

Timing system is complicated and requires great expertise to dodge significant damage to the engine. In case you are unsure of what you are doing, better consult with an expert before making a trial at this process. Verify all your work for errors and make sure it is correct before beginning this process. Watch out that there shouldn't be any contact between the magnetic timing wheels on the camshafts and any magnets or magnetic fields after removing valve covers because they will need replacement. First off, disconnect the battery cable, drain engine oil as well as coolant; then take off drivebelt, air filter housing and resonator in order to initiate removal activity of intake manifolds after which all wires and vacuum hoses from cylinder heads must be disconnected, properly mark them for reinstallation. At first, remove the ignition coils together with spark plugs then remove valve covers lastly. With the valve covers removed, observe where camshaft phasers are located and indicate their positions for reinstatement purposes. Special tools are used to release tensioner so as to free cams phasers from camshafts .Undo both oil control valves on either side of each camshaft carefully taking away both intake and exhaust phasers from camshafts just like a ring can be slipped off a finger easily. After that rotate camshafts counterclockwise up to neutral position then loosen bolts on caps of bearing of shafts supporting rotating cams in place.Waiting long enough remove camshaft bearing caps lifting these components by hand.Later pull out rocker arms as well as hydraulic lash adjusters put marks on them too.Then check surfaces of bearings on cams for damage together with measuring heights of lobes mounted so that could find anything wrong.Restoring broken rocker arms should not only involve replacing defective parts but also checking shafts.Accordingly get clean engine oil dip into it hydraulic lash adjusters telling which locations they fitted earlier.Ensure rocker arm contacting points plus rollers are greased or applied with engine assembly lube and carefully put them back in their positions.Lower camshafts lightly greasing surfaces of bearing journals on them; insert camshafts into cylinder heads taking care not to damage these delicate parts.Fix all the caps for bearings of cams while tightening them with a specified torque.Rotating cams once, verify that neutral points have been set in all alignment holes.Slide intakes as well as exhausts slowly over shafts on which should be visible some marks fitting accurately.Equally the oil control valves will need to tighten up inside phasers by twisting them slightly beyond required pressure.Let go plunger from tensioner then turn round this machine to confirm alignment.Taking note, again mounting process is just opposite to removing.

Take out the negative battery cable. Take off the valve cover(s). Turn the engine in a clockwise direction with a socket and ratchet until "V6" or "V8" marks are at 12 o'clock position on the camshaft sprockets. Put alignment marks on both camshaft sprockets by putting it on chain links of two timing chains. At the end of their torque specs, loosen and re-torque cam sprocket bolts by hand. Put a wedge in behind the secondary chain and tensioner to hold it in place.Set retaining bolts aside that were used for holding on camshaft sprockets. Unbolt the sprocket from its hub without disconnecting any other part of this unit.Remove chains that have been tied to either side of such metal rings.Ensure you have memorized signs depicted on those covers.Loose all screws that hold caps down.Remove cylinders' heads; thereby removing shafts.Check if they are still in good condition after long usage.Comply with measurements for outside diameter specified by manufacturer.Measure run out as well as play.You should compare lobe heights if necessary.Start installing assembly oils into cylinder head cavity prior to pushing camshafts there.Thus, bearing caps must be screwed together and tightened accordingly.Put teeth of this gear near driving chain unit while fixing one's position against pin over camshaft hub.Wipe clean or apply lubrication oil before securing camshaft cog bolts.Finally, remove wedges from timing chains sensors.Set up CMP sensors.Attach valve covers.Secure negative cables again to their proper locations.
