Question: piston as far firing order should up on 1 as you line up timing marks? Thanks

Mark smith says:

Watching another video on a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 4.0 the guy had mentioned there was two different ways you can set up the timing marks for that particular engine,
just wondering if in your opinion that's true ?

That new chain seems pretty sloppy. Is that normal?

danny coleman says:

he did not torque the timing gear bolt and that timing chain had as much slack as the old one he took out , i just put a new one in mine and it is tight on both sides of the chain ! , he must of used the old gears !

Is the timing chain supposed to be loose?

Awesome thanks

Mike Hawk says:

Soak the new chain in oil for at least a few hours. If you just put the chain on without doing that it can wear the new chain in short order. If I'm going to do a timing chain,I soak it overnight if possible and move it around to work the oil into the chain links.

When was the oil slinger deleted?

Joshua Richart says:

Lave the cover loose. install the the balancer. the seal will center the cover. Otherwise you risk a leak…..

Dave Ramsay says:

I know this was a part two video. Was the noise actually from the timing chain then?
