Valve Timing Chain Overview

Every engine with a timing chain relies on this crucial component to synchronize the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft. This synchronization ensures that the engine's valves open and close at the proper times during each cylinder's intake and exhaust strokes. The Mitsubishi 1140A073 is a premium grade valve timing chain designed for durability and precision performance.

Importance of a Timing Chain

The timing chain is fundamental to your vehicle's engine. It handles the essential task of keeping the engine's timing in check. Without it, your vehicle stands at a high risk of experiencing engine failure due to valve and piston collisions, leading to costly repairs.

Working Principle

The valve timing chain is a robust metal chain, similar to a bicycle chain, which wraps around gears (sprockets) attached to the ends of the crankshaft and camshaft. As the crankshaft rotates, it drives the chain, which in turn rotates the camshaft to open and close the engine's valves in sync with the movement of the pistons.

Signs of a Faulty Timing Chain

  • Unusual noises from the engine bay.
  • Engine misfires or runs poorly.
  • Metal shavings found in the engine oil.
  • Check Engine light may illuminate.

If the Mitsubishi 1140A073 timing chain breaks or malfunctions, the engine could suffer from catastrophic damage, potentially leading to the need for a complete engine overhaul or replacement.

Compatibility

This valve timing chain is compatible with a select range of Mitsubishi models:

  • Lancer Sportback
  • Galant Fortis Sportback
  • Lancer
  • Galant Fortis/Lancer Evolution
