Description
- The timing chain transfers energy from the crankshaft to the camshaft by wrapping around gears mounted to the ends of the two shafts, which the chain uses to grip the shafts. The sizes of the gears create a reduction of rotational speed that causes the camshaft to rotate at exactly half the speed of the crankshaft.
- Symptoms of a Bad or Failing Timing Chain: 1. Engine misfires or runs poorly; 2. Metal shavings found in the oil; 3. Engine will not start or fails; 4. Check Engine Light is on; 5. Engine rattles while idling.
