Intake Right Camshaft Timing Sprocket for Suzuki Engines

This precision timing gear is essential for keeping your engine’s valve timing accurate. It links the camshaft to the timing chain/belt, so the intake valves open and close exactly when the crankshaft needs them. When timing is correct, you get smoother idle, better pull, clean fuel burn, and reliable starting ?.

Why this part is needed

The intake cam controls how air enters the cylinders. This sprocket holds the cam in the correct phase angle and transfers rotation from the timing drive. Even small wear on the teeth or the mounting face can shift timing and reduce performance.

How it works

The chain/belt rides on the sprocket teeth. As the crankshaft turns, the timing drive rotates this gear, turning the intake camshaft in sync. Proper tooth profile and alignment keep timing steady under load and at high RPM.

What happens if it’s broken

Common symptoms include rattling near the timing cover, loss of power, rough running, misfires, check engine light, and hard starting. In severe cases, jumped timing can cause internal engine damage on some setups ?.
