I got a 1988 mf mitsubishi triton 4wd , coming up to 200 000, with a DOHC Direct overhead cam
Planning to replace both chains
Hard task for this vehicle
I have only done it on smaller vehicles
Do i necessarily have to take the engine out
I thought i would only have to really take off the front grill, radiator to get access to the general area
Your thoughts ?
thanks|||Go buy a manual.......I like Haynes, but Chiltons is good too.|||Hi
first the DOHC stands for DUEL OVERHEAD CAM. not Direct overhead cam. That means there are 2 cam%26#039;s in the overhead. There is one cam for the intake and one for the exhaust. It is most likely 1 chain not two with an idler gear to keep pusher on the chain over the two cams
good luck
