Drain the engine oil.
Remove the timing chain cover bolts.
Take off the cover to access the timing chain.
Inspect the Timing Chain Tensioner:
Check the tensioner for wear or damage.

Rotate the engine to align the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft sprockets.
Ensure they are in the correct position for TDC (Top Dead Center) on the compression stroke.
Remove the Old Timing Chain:

Slide the old chain off the sprockets.
Install the New Timing Chain:
Thread the new chain onto the sprockets.

Reattach the cover and tighten the bolts.
Refill Engine Oil:
