This tool is required to service the camshaft position actuators (phasers) as well as the camshafts, camshaft followers, lifters, valve springs and valve seals on Alloytec High Feature V6 engines with the 7.7mm timing drive system. Without this tool, repair or replacement of any of the aforementioned engine components will require the removal of the timing cover and the disassembly of the entire camshaft timing system resulting in excessive labour time. Once the camshaft covers are removed, the tool is then installed to retain the timing chain in its proper orientation. The timing chain and its position relative to the camshaft position actuators is to be marked to ensure proper reassembly. It is recommended to only remove and complete work on one camshaft and its mating parts at a time.

Should you damage components, the core refund will be pro-rated to cover the cost of the damaged parts (not including consumables like anti-seize lubricant).
