No, this engine uses a chain.
how do you change a timing chain on a 2003 Chevy cavalier echotech 2,2l
Yes every car has a timing belt or chain.The 2003 Cavalier has a timing belt
It has a timing chain, not a belt. -------- yes
It must be a TIMING CHAIN because the Gates website ( they make timing belts etc. ) does not list a timing belt for the 2003 Chevy Cavalier 2.2 liter
In order to replace a timing chain for a 2003 Chevy Cavalier, a person will need remove the oil pan, crankshaft pulley and hub, timing cover bolts, and timing cover. Then the timing cover gasket, timing cover and bolts, crankshaft pulley, and oil pan will need to be installed.
Well yes and no. Both have a 2.2 four cylinder if I'm not mistaken, but I don't think the earlier Cavalier's have the EcoTec motor. And you should be able to get the engine from the '03 into the '97 with no problem.
The 2.2 ecotec motor has a timing chain with oil pressure tensioner and chain guides.
