CMP Synchronizer: Installation

  1. Install Synchro Positioner (T96T-12200-A) on camshaft synchronizer. Ensure tabs and notches are properly engaged.
  2. NOTE: If the CMP sensor electrical connector is not properly positioned, do not reposition by rotating the synchronizer assembly. This will cause the fuel system and the engine to be out of time, possibly causing engine damage.
  3. Ensure cylinder No. 1 is at TDC on compression stroke. Install camshaft synchronizer assembly into engine. Ensure synchro positioner is pointing directly forward (parallel to crankshaft centerline). See Fig 1.
  4. Install hold-down clamp and tighten bolt to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Install CMP sensor on synchronizer. Ensure electrical connector is facing front of engine. Tighten hold-down bolt to specification. Reconnect wiring to CMP sensor. Connect negative battery cable.
