Saturn engine noise

I have always used the saturn factory timing chain's since I worked at the saturn dealer.I wouldn't go with the cheapest though. Probably cloyes how much are they asking for that one.

I have never heard of the pci brand let me do some checking and I will find a good timing chain set.

Ok I will find you one.

I would go with that pci set on ebay I just order that set for my buddy has a 1997 saturn SL2 and it needs a timing chain set and iam going to put one of those in his car. Here is the product description I found on ebay for that product line.

This kit is assembled by Preferred Components, using components that meet or exceed OEM specifications. PCI specializes in supplying OHC timing sets & components for the "professional installer". PCI is an importer and supplier of high quality timing system products manufactured by both OEM and aftermarket manufacturers that have OEM business and understand quality standards

Yeah hit me up if you have any questions or problems and let me know how it goes.I live in california so that would probably be a long way to go for a house call lol.

That's strange your right different brands different link number's from 92 links to 144 link's.I did some research and found what looks like the dual cam use's a 126 link chain and the single cam uses a 92 link chain. Go to rockauto. Com I order a lot of parts from there and there parts fit well. Click your car on the catalog select engine then click the timing chain tab it will show you the chains and it will tell you the two chains they sell are 126 links. So I would go with the pci set which is a 126 links that is the set I bought I just looked at another listing on ebay that was pci and it said 126 links. Here is the link to the one I ordered.

I have not gotten mine yet they mailed it out mon it's coming from washington so it should only take me a couple of days to get. As far as getting stuff from ebay I wouldn't worry about it your purchases are all protected thru them.I have bought a lot of things from ebay over the years and I have only had one problem with a purchase just recently and ebay made it right and gave me a full refund since the seller wouldn't. Always look at the sellers feedback before you buy from them.I will let you know when I get it and what I think of it.

I got the kit it looks pretty good for the price looks like I will be putting it in my buddies car tonight I will let you know how it goes.

Sorry I have been meaning to tell you how it went but I have been busy and my computer is a piece of crap and has been giving me trouble lately. Put the kit in mon night it fit good except the guide with one bolt that goes against the tenisor I tighten the retaining bolt and then the guide didn't freely move back and fourth. So I looked at the old one compared to the new one and the old one has a bevel edge going into the bolt hole on the side that faces the front cover. Also its slightly beveled down thickness wise so I beveled the hole with a drill bit spinning it with my hand and also filed the guide down slightly on that one side. Very minor alteration only took a few mins then the guide moved freely back and fourth. Its up too you if you want to get a different set or keep that one and slightly modify it. The kit worked great for me. Let me know how it goes.

Alright keep me posted iam here if you need me.

I have another tip for you get some permatex ultra grey silicone to reseal the front cover. Also make sure you put a bead of silicone across both sides where the front cover meets the head and the cam cover gasket seal against it. Also put the silicone on the pan no silicone on the bottom of the front cover where the oil passages are.
