Want this question answered?
This engine has a timing chain, not a belt. It would be a five hour job.
It's takes me about three hours labor.
what size motor 2.4, 2.7 or 3.0. If it is the 2.7, the water pump is behind the timing chain cover and is driven by the timing chain, about 12 or more hours to change.
are u sure is the timing chain? because cult it by the timing sensor or the timing auctueror sprocket There is no timing belt on a trailblazer only a single timing chain. After some research I found out that the timing chain is still in service in vehicles that have over 150,000 miles without issues. It does not appear to be a weak link in this very strong Atlas LL8 design. The posted labor to change it out is listed at 16 hours. Not really a driveway job but based on history not a problem on these trucks.
18 hrs at home and 12 hrs in the shop
the 1997 grand am has a timing CHAIN. it takes approx. 4-6 hours to replace. that is if you have done timing chains before. otherwise...it might take longer
Makes me wonder if this is a common problem on Ford Exploders. My '02 Explorer V-8 with 46,000 miles needs a timing chain too. My mechanic is telling me it is a 6.5 hour job. If parts have dropped into the oil pan, add 3.1 hours.
Mazda warranty pays 2.2 hours of labour. Normally the timing chain will last the life of the engine and no maintenance is required.
It will take an experience mechanic approximately 8 hours to replace the timing belt in your 1992 Chevy Corsica. The 1992 Chevy Corsica does not have each timing chain, it has a timing belt.
5.3 hours if RWD...6.0 hours if AWD
According to the Ford mechanics manual it will take approximately 8 hours to change the timing belt. The procedure can take as little as seven hours and as many as nine hours to complete.
it pays 8 hours labor. so depending on the shops labor rate should be a little under $800.00. call ford on timing chain and all gears and a gasket set
