To change the timing belt on a 1989 Volvo 240 DL, first disconnect the battery and remove the front engine cover. Align the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft to ensure proper timing, then remove the old timing belt by loosening the tensioner. Install the new belt by following the same routing as the old one, ensuring it's tight but not overly strained, then reassemble the engine components and reconnect the battery. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for specific torque values and procedures.

Normally an engine this old that needs a new timing chain, also needs an overhaul. I cannot tell you in this limited space how to change the chain and gears. I suggest you purchase a Haynes, or Chilton's repair manual.

how much play should a 4.3 Chevy engine timing chain have?
chain, to the best of my knowledge belts were never used on the 3800.
According to the Gates website ( they make timing belts etcetera ) The 3.0 liter V6 engine in a 1989 Ford Taurus SHO has a timing BELT
No, it has a timing belt which must be changed every 60,000 miles.
I would suspect you need a new timing chain or belt depending on which is installed. A worn belt or chain will jump time.
