How-To: Remove Twin Cam Timing Sprocket
By 3100 MPFI at 04/20/2008 - 02:26

Recently I had to remove the front cover on my 1994 3.4 DOHC V6, and
one problem that I had was removing the sprocket that goes for the main
timing belt drive pulley.  It was pressed on, but I could not find an
easy way to remove it.  Turns out you have to tap it for screws and use
a puller, but more on that later.

 

What you will need:

1.  7/16 thread tap

2.  2 or 3 7/16 bolts (depending on the puller that you use) that have the same thread pitch as the tap.

The following pictures and directions should be used as a general guideline and in no way represents every year/modification. See the specifications page for the proper fastener torque specs.

Parts



You will want to replace EVERYTHING when you replace the belt. It costs more now but it will save you time and more money later on.
