The 2.4 litre four cylinder engine in a 1998 Chevrolet Malibu has a timing CHAIN
Fram # PH9018
The water pump on a 97 Chevy Malibu 4 cylinder is replaced by removing the engine accessories, drive belt, and radiator hoses. The pump can then be unbolted, removed, and a new pump installed.
The firing order for a Chevy Malibu is 1, 3, 4, 2. The number one cylinder is located near the main pulley on the engine.
6 cylinder is probly 3.1 or 3.4 litre. alot of horse power compared to the plain 4 cylinder. the "ls" = a little extra chrome,etc. , proby cruise,etc.
The subframe would be the same. The only thing with different engines would be engine mounts. But that has nothing to do with the subframe.
It must have a TIMING CHAIN because Gates ( they make timing belts etc. ) does not list a timing belt for the 2.4 liter 4 cylinder in a 2009 Chev Malibu
Get the computer scanned to see what the problem is.
if it's a 4 cylinder then you need 4 plugs if it's a 6 cylinder then you need 6 plugs **********************KKODAL********************************
