How to Maintain and Fix a Timing Cover on 2004 Dodge Stratus?

The process starts with taking out the upper timing belt cover fasteners and afterward the cover as well. Remove the negative battery cable and place the car up on a hoist. Take away the right front wheel, plus the plastic splash guard, then remove the accessory drive belts, crankshaft damper and AC/Generator belt tensioner. Raise your vehicle and free the generator and bracket after disconnecting the connectors first. With the engine still supported, raise the car again and remove the fasteners holding the lower timing cover. Then take off this cover. After that, take off both the upper and lower front timing belt covers, then remove the timing belt and its idler pulley. Both camshaft sprockets should be removed with Special Tool 6847, being careful to avoid rotation and the rear timing belt cover should be removed afterward. To install the components, begin by installing the rear timing belt cover and tightening its bolt, to the correct torque value. Use Special Tool 6847 and tighten the bolts in the center of each camshaft sprocket to 85 ft. lbs. After that, let's install the timing belt idler pulley, the timing belt and finish with installing both the upper and lower front timing belt covers. To secure the lower front cover's fasteners, set them to 6 Nm (50 in. lbs.). Afterward, lower the car, replace the generator and bracket and connect the generator connectors. Raise the vehicle once more to fit the AC/Generator belt tensioner, crankshaft damper and all the drive belts. Once done, secure the belt splash shield and the front wheel, adjust the car, attach the negative battery cable and finish the electric parts as mentioned in step three. Attach the upper front cover, then tighten each fastener to 6 Nm (50 in. lbs.).
