How to Install a Timing Cover and Its Components on 2010 Chrysler Town & Country?

Question

Accepted Answer

It is important to ensure the chain case cover matches cleanly with the cylinder block and to remove the crankshaft oil seal to allow normal oil pump function before installing the engine timing cover. Set a new gasket on the timing cover so that its lower edge is lined up to be 0.5 mm past the cover's lower edge. Position the oil pump drive and inner rotor discs so their mating flats are in alignment, both face-up to prevent any serious damage. Tighten the timing cover and timing chain cover bolts; when doing so, use 27 Nm for M8 bolts and 54 Nm for M10 bolts. Put in place the crankshaft front oil seal, water pump and pulley. After the idler pulley, tighten the bolt on the accessory drive belt tensioner to 28 Nm. Put the power steering pump on the engine and attach it using three bolts through the pulley before squeezing them tight to 23 Nm. Align the generator with the engine, bolt it down with two bolts and snugly fit around 54 Nm of force. Put the bracket on the generator and the stud and tighten the bolt and nut to 28 Nm. Attach the front support bracket using two bolts and a nut and tighten everything so the nut shows 22 Nm and the bolts 25 Nm. Place the support bracket for the power steering line and tighten the bolt to 10 Nm. Place the right side engine mount, install the camshaft position sensor and attach both the heater return hose and lower radiator hose. Attach the crankshaft vibration damper, set the A/C compressor in position and fasten all the nuts and bolts according to the sequence given. Set the drive belt in place, install the oil pump pick-up tube with a new O-ring and secure both with a tight 28 Nm bolt. Add in the oil pan, the right front inner splash shield and the tires and wheels to the right front. Pour engine oil into the crankcase up to the mark and also fill the cooling system. After that, attach the negative battery cable and tighten its nut to 5 Nm.
