FAQ:
Q: What causes a timing chain tensioner to fail on a Ecotec?
A: The timing chain sits within a cover and is lubricated with engine oil. On the 2.2 Ecotec, the timing chain tensioner commonly fails. This problem is most common for 2000-2004 models. These early model engines had a design flaw that caused the timing chain tensioners to not receive enough oil at idle.
Q: What is an Ecotec engine?
A: Offered in a number of different incarnations over the years and platforms, Ecotecs come in two displacements, 2.2 and 2.4-liters, and can be equipped with bespoke features normally reserved for high end or exotic engines, such as direct injection and Variable Valve Timing (VVT) systems.
Q: Is there aftermarket support for the GM Ecotec 4-pot engine?
A: Aftermarket support for these compact GM four-pot engines has come in a tidal wave as a new generation of enthusiast culture welcomes them into the fold. In this video, Cody Smith of Cloyes Gear and Productswalks us through the timing and balance-shaft chain service on a non VVT example of GM’s Ecotec.
Q: Can You fool around with timing chains in an interference engine?
A: Fooling around with the timing chains or belts in an interference engine can be a nerve racking task, especially when it comes to turning the key after your handy work is complete. To ensure your pistons and valves don’t play musical chairs, Smith points us in the direction to ensure all the camshafts and gears remain indexed correctly.
