engine timing

[sl2fast]

ok, its getting close to time for me to redo my timing, ive got a parts list going so far as to what i need, cuz they dont sell timing kits for the 99's.
timing chain
tensioner guides
tensioner
oil pump (might as well as im in there right?)
front oil seal
timing chain cover gasket
valve cover gasket

do i need to replace the cam gears and crank gear or are they ok to re-use????

im lookin at some sda cams too to go in with the timing stuff [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_twisted.gif[/img]

If you go to your local saturn dealer ship you can get a brand new Timng Chain kit. Its over the 100$ price mark. Comes with new chain, cam gears, chain guides, seals, crankgear, and all te other little parts. Gaskets sold seperately.

my local dealership said that the 99 and newer dont have a kit. everything comes seperate.

and no you wont need the cam gears, they should be fine. the crank, should be fine too but you will just have to look at them to find out. if you have the money and dont mind then go ahead and change them.

I would replace everything if you're going to change the other stuff

better to be safe and have spares then sorry
