The 4.0 L - SOHC - V6 engine has 3 timing chains a main timing chain at the front of the engine going from the crankshaft to what is called the jackshaft ( the jackshaft is in the same location as the camshaft on the 4.0 L - OHV - V6 engine ) a 2nd chain from the jackshaft to the drivers side cylinder head ( at the front of the engine ) and a 3rd chain from the jackshaft to the passenger side cylinder head ( at the rear of the engine ) if this is the 5.0 L - V8 engine - there is 1 timing chain at the front of the engine
How frequent do you have to change the timing chain in Chevrolet Corsica 1994 engine 2.2 after how many kilometers?
There is no set mileage to change the timing chain. Chains will usually last the life of the engine. The usual symptoms of a chain going bad are that the engine rattles when you first start it (chain flapping around) and lacks power(slack chain causing camshaft timing to drift around unpredictably). Replacing a chain can cost from $500-$700 so just rest easy, and unless you hear it or notice poor performance it is fine.
What happens when the timing chain is going out?
redo the timing or replace the whole kit - I might add that replacing the entire timing chain as a kit is what you would do when you find out that the timing chain is bad. The question was what happens when the timing chain is going out? 1. It may get or be harder to start the engine 2. The engine performance will be down 3. The ignition and cam timing will be unstable 4. The engine has a greater potential to "jump" timing or become mistimed. This could lead to bent valves and other problems which are more expensive to fix.
How much does a timing chain cost 4 a 2000 Nissan Maxima what r the symptoms its bad?
Parts and labor to replace the timing chain on a Nissan Maxima will easily exceed over $1,500.00. If you have to incur the expense, might as well also spend another $500.00 to replace the water pump. [Note: when that timing chain goes, you lose the engine. Engine-replacement is over $3,000.] The timing chain shouldn't really break. "Going-bad" will be where the timing chain is getting loose and the sound of the chain flapping around inside its assembly can actually be heard as you rev the engine. Have a reliable mechanic give you their assessment of what's happening with the timing chain (and the water pump). Might as well get a second mechanic give a second opinion.

When do you know when your timing belt is going bad on a 1993 jeep wrangler?

It will become noisy and you will hear it. Also you may experience poor performance if the chain has jumped a tooth.

How do you check the timing chain on 1995 Chevy astro to see if it is broke?
If your vehicle is at least 60,000 miles it is recommended you replace the timing chain. If your timing chain broke, your engine would NOT run because the timing chain is what rotates your engines camshafts to open and close the valves. Also, you would have some serious engine damage if you were driving and your engine suddenly just quit and it happened to be your timing chain. There really is no way to "check" a timing chain as it's hidden behind the belt area of the engine (if I'm not mistaken). If you're going to go through the labor of "checking" a timing chain, you might as well replace it, as the average timing chain job costs about $220, $200 of that being the labor.
Does the 2.4 use a timing belt or a chain?
It is going to depend on the year, make, and model. Chrysler has had a 2.4 with a belt and a different 2.4 with a chain.
