🔧 Cloyes 9-4201S Multi-Piece Timing Kit: Ultimate Precision & Durability for Perfect Engine Synchronization Review

Comes with cam sprockets that look nothing like the picture. In fact, they aren't even tagged with Cloyes. My crank sprocket looked like the original and appeared to be of good quality. WITHOUT CRANKSHAFT BOLT. Be sure to order it from your retailer or online as most of them take about a week to ship. Be sure to check all parts as they will just hang around in the box and rattle and you don't want the control components getting damaged during installation.

Used it to repair my wife's old 2000 Saturn with no compression due to the belt coming loose due to a broken plastic guide, the replacement kit was perfect and very reasonably priced. Everything seems to be of high quality (or good enough quality) that should last a while. The car has already been sold but has been driving normally with this kit for 2-3 years. PS - throw away your Saturn or GM if it has a 2.2 engine, they all have this timing chain problem sooner or later. It costs $800 to fix…

what a hassle to install whoever came up with DOHC sucks. Be careful when loosening the other chain to install it as you will need to reset the water pump tensioner (which isn't hard to see on YouTube) but it will make a lot more noise if you leave it that tight. When it gets there you also risk premature water pump failure, which I didn't like. The kit worked well, the car had 200,000 on it and it looks like someone installed it just before my dad bought the car. glad we looked around.

The kit is well made, but the stock sprockets and upper chain guide are better designed. The installation video was easy except for the hardest part, getting the timing marks on the sprockets to line up properly. The video should contain more information about camshaft alignment, TDC, ideal chain tension, crankshaft rotation, gaskets, harmonic balancers/damper, water pump, oil pump, spark plugs, gear and balancer assembly/tightening techniques and tricks etc. because they are all the necessary…

This product is really well made. But the problem was the delivery. Not sure if this was just me, but my package was delivered unsecured. The box was opened and slightly dented affecting one of the internal components. The box containing the damaged item was badly dented. I couldn't return the item because I'm in the timeline. Doubtful detail - tensioner. I had to disassemble and disable it. It should have been disabled by the manufacturer, but it isn't. It was probably activated by an impact…

Cloyes is a trusted OEM for many car manufacturers. This is a very good kit with all the parts required EXCEPT the crankshaft pulley bolt, WT*? Must purchase a crankshaft pulley bolt from a Chevy dealer. BE SURE TO REPLACE THIS SCREW as it is designed as a single use screw with the correct torque/tightening specifications for one time use. If you reuse the brake disc bolt, it cannot be tightened properly even with a torque wrench because the bolt is already stretched when first used. Is an $8…

Very pleased with this timing kit. Cloyes has a great tutorial video for the 2.2 liter Ecotec engine on YouTube that was very helpful with this swap. The chain is well marked and the sprockets and chain appear to be of high quality. Cloyes must include the crankshaft bolt in this kit as the bolt is used only once. It is also recommended to provide a list of tightening torques for various bolts (camshaft bolts, chain tensioner). Be sure to cover the bottom of the control housing when removing…

If you are changing the timing chain, tensioner or removing the head on your 2.2 ECOtec buy this kit. As long as you don't mess up the timing case gasket, this kit has everything you need, right down to the torque cam bolts. I wasn't sure about getting this kit as I wasn't 100% sure if I would need new camshaft bolts or gears - I was trying to make this repair as cheap as possible. When I got to the engine I found that you would definitely need new camshaft bolts as you would need to back off…
