Frequently asked questions

What does the Crankshaft Timing Sprocket do?

The Crankshaft Timing Sprocket mounts on the nose of the crankshaft and its teeth drive the timing chain. This turns the camshaft sprocket in time with the crankshaft, keeping valve timing correct. It works alongside the camshaft sprocket, timing chain and tensioner on the 2.25 and 2.5 engines.

Should the timing sprocket be replaced with the chain?

Yes, the crankshaft timing sprocket is typically replaced together with the timing chain and camshaft sprocket. Worn sprocket teeth accelerate chain wear and can cause timing rattle, so fitting a new chain onto worn sprockets usually shortens its life. Most workshops renew the sprockets and chain as a set.

Which engines does this timing sprocket fit?

This timing sprocket fits the Land Rover Series 2, 2A and 3 and the Defender (1983-2006) with the 2.25 and 2.5 four-cylinder engines, and carries part number 568333. Confirm your engine type, as timing components differ between the four-cylinder and later engines.
