Take out the negative battery cable. Take off the valve cover(s). Turn the engine in a clockwise direction with a socket and ratchet until "V6" or "V8" marks are at 12 o'clock position on the camshaft sprockets. Put alignment marks on both camshaft sprockets by putting it on chain links of two timing chains. At the end of their torque specs, loosen and re-torque cam sprocket bolts by hand. Put a wedge in behind the secondary chain and tensioner to hold it in place.Set retaining bolts aside that were used for holding on camshaft sprockets. Unbolt the sprocket from its hub without disconnecting any other part of this unit.Remove chains that have been tied to either side of such metal rings.Ensure you have memorized signs depicted on those covers.Loose all screws that hold caps down.Remove cylinders' heads; thereby removing shafts.Check if they are still in good condition after long usage.Comply with measurements for outside diameter specified by manufacturer.Measure run out as well as play.You should compare lobe heights if necessary.Start installing assembly oils into cylinder head cavity prior to pushing camshafts there.Thus, bearing caps must be screwed together and tightened accordingly.Put teeth of this gear near driving chain unit while fixing one's position against pin over camshaft hub.Wipe clean or apply lubrication oil before securing camshaft cog bolts.Finally, remove wedges from timing chains sensors.Set up CMP sensors.Attach valve covers.Secure negative cables again to their proper locations.

To start with, relieve the pressure in the fuel system and disconnect the battery to remove the camshaft. After that, drain the cooling system and remove timing chain cover, timing chain, phaser, and oil pump. Then remove cylinder heads and radiator. Remove Lash Adjuster rail mounting bolts next and extract Lash Adjusters from bore of Lash Adjusters using a special tool or magnet. Before camshaft removal check endplay and then remove thrust plate of camshaft. Carefully pull it using a long bolt as handle while turning it. To inspect camshaft; look for discoloration on lobes, score marks on lobes, uneven wear on lobes, check bearing journals for wear on journals of bearings measure lobe height for each lobe of camshaft among others things such as this. Check shoves inside Lash Adjuster wall, Lash Adjuster seats valves along pushrod or roller. If new Lash Adjusters are going into engine, new camshaft must also be installed with them. With installation lube apply some lubricant onto both bearing journal as well as the hardened lobes of the camshaft before sliding its nose into place and installing thrust plate for it. Installation is followed by installation of timing chain, sprocket, lubricating Lash Adjusters then finally putting them in block. Finally complete remaining steps in checking if necessary filling coolant system oil filter starting engine checking leaks changing oil breaking components to other new ones that remain.

Before starting, disconnect the battery cable, drain the engine oil and coolant, and remove the drivebelt, air filter housing, and resonator. Also, remove the intake manifolds and disconnect all wires and vacuum hoses from the cylinder heads, labeling them for reinstallation.

Finally, have the air conditioning system evacuated, recharged, and leak-tested by a professional shop.

Inspect the camshaft bearing surfaces for damage and measure the camshaft lobe heights. Additionally, check the rocker arms and shafts for wear and replace any defective parts.

A new camshaft must also be installed.

The timing system is complex and should only be attempted by individuals with a high level of experience to avoid severe engine damage. If unsure of your abilities, consult an expert before starting. Also, be cautious not to let the magnetic timing wheels on the camshafts come in contact with magnets or magnetic fields, as this will require replacement.

Clean the lifters and check for scuffing and wear on the lifter walls, pushrod seats, and roller lifters.

Remove the lifter rail mounting bolts and use a special tool or magnet to extract the lifters.

After removing the sprockets, you should also remove the camshaft chains from the sprockets.

Remove all tappet retaining dowels or clamps and proceed with the reassembly of pushrods, rocker arms, and other components. Adjust the valve clearance and complete the installation process, including changing the engine oil and filter. If the side cover was removed, install it with a new gasket.

For tappet retention using Method One, you'll need wooden dowels to secure the tappets in their bores. Insert the dowels through the pushrod holes and secure them with rubber bands to keep the tappets raised. In Method Two, you'll use small hose clamps to retain the tappets at the top of their bores.
