Description

This Febi Timing Chain Kit (MPN: 107691) is a comprehensive solution for replacing worn timing chain components within the engine's timing drive system. It is designed for optimal engine performance and reliability. Manufactured in Germany, this kit includes all necessary components to ensure a smooth and efficient timing operation. The dimensions of this kit are 93 x 103 x 318 mm. This kit offers enhanced durability and precise engine timing, contributing to improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.

Key Features & Benefits

This kit essentially takes care of two big jobs. The timing chain itself connects the crankshaft to the camshaft. Think of it like a really precise belt that makes sure all the valves in your engine open and close at exactly the right time with the pistons going up and down. The oil pump, as you probably guessed, circulates oil throughout the engine. This one is often included in the kit because it’s driven by the timing chain, and usually has a similar lifespan. The kit will include the chain, sprockets (the toothed wheels the chain runs on), tensioners to keep everything tight, guides to keep the chain on track, and then the new oil pump with its pickup tube and often a new gasket set. This is absolutely critical for how your engine runs. The timing chain ensures everything is synchronized, and if it slips or breaks, things go very wrong, very quickly. It’s a fundamental part of the engine’s internal operation. The oil pump is, well, it’s the lifeblood of the engine. Without oil circulating, you’ll have metal – on – metal contact and severe damage in just minutes. Everything just seizes up. This kit takes care of both those needs simultaneously.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

A worn timing chain or a failing oil pump can cause some serious problems. A stretched chain can throw off the engine timing leading to poor performance, rough running, and eventually, internal engine damage. You’ll notice if it’s getting really bad – things like a rattling noise from the front of the engine, or the check engine light coming on. The oil pump, if it’s failing, will usually start with low oil pressure – you might see the oil pressure light flicker or stay on. Replacing the whole kit proactively avoids a much bigger, more expensive repair down the road. It’s preventative maintenance. You can find these kits at places like Fixparts Online, and honestly it’s usually more cost effective to do it all at once while you have everything apart. It saves on labor costs, too.
