How to align the timing chain of Zotye T600?
1 Answers
Align the double dots on the crankshaft pulley with the double dots on the timing belt cover, and position the camshaft with the position sensor directly opposite the position sensor to complete the timing chain alignment. The timing chain operates by connecting the sprockets of components such as the crankshaft and camshaft with high-strength metal chains, ensuring synchronized operation. Below is information about the timing chain: 1. The primary function of the timing chain is to drive the engine's valve train, ensuring that the intake and exhaust valves open and close at the appropriate times. Thus, the timing chain guarantees proper air intake and exhaust in the engine cylinders. 2. Timing chains generally do not require replacement, as they have a long service life and high reliability. A timing chain can typically function normally within 150,000 kilometers. Theoretically, timing chains can last a lifetime without maintenance. However, in practical use, timing chains do experience some wear, especially when the vehicle is consistently driven at high speeds with heavy loads, which can accelerate wear.
