Oil Pump with Coolant guide housing

Installing the Oil Pump with Coolant guide housing: If I read the manual correctly it states for assembly instructions follow Group 17 page 17 – 5. Looking at 17 – 5, through 17 - 8. There is no specific instructions. My problem is that the intermediate shaft is not centered so the housing will not just slip on the engine case. The front pulley was at OT 1 I am not sure if the engine has been turned over. I tried to turn the motor over but I hit resistance so I placed it back to 0T 1. Is it possible that the cam timing has changed by slipping on the chain sprocket.

Thanks

Bill

Sorry 2.7 986 It was runnning when taken out of vehicle last winter. I used all the parts on a 3.4 that is why it's striped to basic engine with heads and complete assembled block.

It sounds like you need to make sure that the crankshaft has not moved and the timing chains have not slipped a notch - check the cam timing too.

Attached is a drwaing of the Cam Positions with the Crank pulley set at 0T-1.

Th e left side shows the Pulley Side view the right side shows the Flywheel side view. I hope you can see the lines okay!

Thanks Again
