How to align the timing chain of a Kia Forte engine?
1 Answers
Align the two groove marks with the cylinder head plane respectively, and align the dot on the gear with the black chain link on the chain. Align the TDC mark on the crankshaft gear with the mark on the oil pump. There are chain links of different colors on the chain. First, rotate the crankshaft to the top dead center of the first cylinder piston. You will see marks when aligning the timing gears up and down. Rotate the first cylinder cam of the camshaft to the position where the valves are closed, then look ahead to find a round hole, and check the housing to locate the mark.
