no The Chevy Celebrity 4 cylinder engine doesn't use a timing belt, it uses a timing gear. To replace the gear it is necessary to remove the camshaft from the engine as it is a press job. To remove the camshaft it is necessary to remove the engine from the car.
Yes, you have to remove the camshaft from the engine to replace the timing gear. The timing gear is pressed both on and off of the camshaft using an arbor or other suitable press. Since there is not room to remove the camshaft in the car the engine has to be out of the car.
Last year my mechanic changed my broken camshaft in a 3.3 l flex fuel engine in my 2000 Grand Caravan. It was necessary to jack up the van and drop the engine far enough to pull the camshaft out the passenger side. There were quite a few parts to remove to do that.
Camshaft gear, on your 3406 Caterpillar diesel engine, by using a car puller. You will need to remove the front engine cover in order to get at the gear.
no you do not need to, but if you are rebuilding the engine i would.
take the front grill support off if the engine is in the car. then remove the plate covering the cam. then remove the cam?. it is alot easier with the engine on a stand.
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) is located at the rear of the engine, in the top center of the block. You have to remove the intake manifold to access it .... it is directly behind the knock sensors at the back of the engine.
The camshaft position sensor on your 2002 automobile is located on the front of the camshaft. You will need to remove the front engine cover to access the sensor.
first you have to remove the engine from the car, second, remove the head cover and remove the push rod. under the intake manifold, remove the wide cover and remove the hydrolic lifter (you might want to replace them) at the front of the engine (strap side) remove the pully and the pully cover. mark the place of the timing shaft with a pen and remove it from the engine. you can now pull the camshaft out of the engine but be carefull becaus the bearing are really delicate. to replace the rebuitl camshaft, make sure you place it in the right position with the crank shaft gear. there is a mark on the camshat and on the crank shaft that must me align.
There are 2 main type of 1.3 engine , one does have the camshatt in the basement and require to remove several components because u need to open the engine from below and access the camshaft via sump , the other one is the same engine but the camshaft was moved on the enginehead , both are chain drive , the year don't tell umuch because both are still used on several models , but the power out put will tell you, bph 50 or 60 it's the one with camshaft in the basement the 70 bhp is the one with the overhead camshaft.

With a tape measure check the length of the camshaft by either checking the new camshaft or measuring along the top of the engine, now take that length and extend it out from the front of the engine to see if you have a straight shot out the front of the block to remove the camshaft, by default the fan, radiator and ac condenser will need to removed for the actual removal of the camshaft.
First, find the camshaft sensor. It will be right in the front of the engine near the valve cover. Disconnect the plug and remove the bolt. Pull the camshaft sensor out. Insert the new camshaft sensor and reattach the plug.
