This vehical does not have a timing chain it has a timing belt, it has two over head cams. If you have never done one before you will have to have a book to set the timing marks. There should be 4 maybe 5 timing marks that have to be set. You will have to remove the uper motor mount and anything on the fron of the engine to get to the covers to include the harmonis balancer which requires a puller and a good impact gun to remove crankshaft bolt. I do not recomend you do this if you have not done one before.
