Timing chain question

10945 Views 13 Replies 6 Participants Last post by  rdrfronty
My first question is do you need to replace the top chain guide? I ordered a kit and the guide that sits on-top between the 2 cams isnt in the kit. Dont wanna get it torn down and not have all the parts i need. Also, is it necessary to take the oilpans off if i can blow them out with compressed air? assuming the only reason that you take them off is because water from the water pump might leak in there. I am doing this on Sat so i wanna make sure i got everything together. thanks

This may help in your oil pan issue. I also had the issue when I did my cams. I just changed my oil again after my initial startup just to be safe. And I did have evidence that a little water still got mixed in, so i'm glad i changed the oil right away.
