Mercury Timing Chain Tensioner ensures that the timing chain remains in tension to ensure that valves and pistons are in line. In 1938 Mercury was born with a name that was expeditious and precise. Throughout decades it has found its niche between bare-bones economy cars and oversized luxury barges, creating sharp lines, chrome accents, and a relaxed-cruising ride. Cabins were quiet, suspensions damped bumps, and passengers were allowed to sit on wide seats, on clear gauges and with what seemed light but direct steering. Cougar and Grand Marquis were an indication that Mercury was striking a balance between flash and frugality as it continued its consistent comfort upgrades annually. Despite the end of production in 2011, Mercury created a legacy of confidence and approachable refinement in the mid-size that continues to be heard on the road. Drivers do not remember Mercury because it made travel an easy but not an extravagant thing. A modern Timing Chain Tensioner is a spring or oil pressure that is applied to compress a small shoe against the chain, eliminating slackness before it can rattle or jump teeth. Once the Timing Chain Tensioner is maintained at the correct pressure, camshafts spin in a perfect sequence with the crank, avoiding damage to the valves and conserving power. Not replacing a worn Timing Chain Tensioner is asking to start hard, have a noisy operation, and face the danger of severe engine damage that can leave any driver stuck. Constructed using tight tolerances, every Timing Chain Tensioner resists high heat and vibration and requires no adjustments at all on the part of the person inside the car.

Mercury Timing Chain Tensioner Parts and Q&A

  • Q: How to service the hydraulic timing chain tensioner on the left-hand side on Mercury Mountaineer?
    A:
    One must begin the servicing process of the left-hand side hydraulic timing chain tensioner by removing it first. When installing the hydraulic timing chain tensioner keep tightening pressure to reach 44 Nm (32 lb-ft). Install a new hydraulic timing chain tensioner washer when reinstalling while discarding the old washer according to the opposite removal steps.
  • Q: How to service and repair the timing chain tensioner on Mercury Grand Marquis?
    A:
    Service and repair of the timing chain tensioner requires performing the work when the engine stops freewheeling to minimize potential valve and piston harm. Service the fire suppression system after turning off its power. The vehicle must remain on a hoist in neutral gear before removing the engine front cover. Start by removing the crankshaft sensor ring and disconnect the eight ignition coil electrical connectors before proceeding to eliminate ignition coil bolts and coils. The correct use of hand tools allows you to extract the eight spark plugs while cleaning all wells with compressed air. The valve spring compressor spacer needs installation on the camshaft lobe point facing upwards to safeguard valve stem seals. Place marker points on components before using the valve spring compressor to squeeze the valve springs which allows removal of camshaft roller followers. The technician should employ a methodical approach to remove the timing chain tensioning system by starting with the bolts, tensioners and tensioner arms and continuing with the LH and RH timing chains and blunt manipulation of the crankshaft sprocket. Before removing the camshaft gear bolt install the camshaft position aligner. You should use a vise to compress the tensioner plungers of ratcheting timing chain tensioners while maintaining the ratchet mechanism in reverse and securing it with a paper clip. The seal on non-ratcheting tensioners must be evaluated for damage so the tensioner gets replaced if needed. The installation requires compressing tensioner plungers before installing hydraulic chain tensioner retaining clips. Position the camshaft sprockets by installing fresh bolts and then tighten them in two procedures: first to 40 Nm (30 lb-ft) followed by an additional 90 degree twist. Using the crankshaft holding tool locate the crankshaft to top dead center (TDC) before fixing the crankshaft sprocket with its flange pointing towards the front. Attach the timing chain guides before tightening both LH and RH bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in). The RH camshaft sprocket needs to be positioned at the 11 o'clock mark and the LH sprocket at the 1 o'clock position before you align the colored links of the LH timing chain with the sprocket's timing marks and install the tensioner while tightening it to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft). Discard the retaining clips from tensioners and validate that colored links face the sprocket dots. Position the camshaft lobe vertically up and insert the valve spring compressor spacer before applying grease to the roller followers and their correct reinstallment. Adjust the eight spark plugs to 18 Nm (159 lb-in) torque then install the ignition coils with identical bolt torque applied at 6 Nm (53 lb-in). Afterwards reconnect all electrical connectors. Last step involves the replacement of the crankshaft sensor ring while keeping the engine front cover and performing fire suppression system reactivation by following all necessary safety precautions.
