Torque values required for timing tensioner components
This may have been talked about before in the past, however, I just wanted to bring it up again for anyone planning to replace their timing chain tensioners. I just replaced my secondary tensioners, and had to do some excessive research to find the CORRECT torque values.
I used the zip tie method and removed the exhaust cam, so I will make a list of all of the torque values for each component.
Valve cover: 84-96 inch pounds/7-8 foot pounds/9-11 Newton Meters
Secondary timing chain tensioners (with locktite): 89-124 inch pounds/7.4-10.3 foot pounds/ 10-14 Nm.
Secondary timing chain guide: 89-124 inch pounds/7.4-10.3 foot pounds/10-14 Nm.
Primary tensioner & backing plate: 89-124 inch pounds/7.4-10.3 foot pounds/10-14 Nm.
Exhaust & Intake VVT Sprocket: 1080-1104 inch pounds/85-92 foot pounds/115.2-124.7 Nm
Cam bearing caps: 84-96 inch pounds/7-8 foot pounds/9-11 Nm.
Remember, over torquing will likely result in broken & stretched bolts.
