How do you install a timing chain on a Chevy Cavalier?

In: Chevy Cavalier

[Edit]

It more than likely is a 2.2 and then it would be called a Timing Chain. And yes If you have not ever done one it would still be a good idea to consult a manual!

It is called a timing belt on these engines

If its like my 99 and a 2.4 its a chain and i would recommend buying a book that will walk you threw it. I have done this twice on my 94 Buick skylark that has basically the same engine and it is NOT FUN. You have a lot of work ahead. Its on the left side right by the motor mount witch must come out. You can do it but the book is extremely help full and i would recommend a pneumatic or electric impact wrench to remove the timing sprockets nuts. You will need tools!!!
