2002 Chevrolet Astro Camshaft Parts and Q&A

• Q: How to replace the camshaft on 2002 Chevrolet Astro?

  A: The procedure to change the Camshaft begins with engine cover and air cleaner assembly removal along with Radiator detachment and A/C Condenser separation from the Radiator grille and valve lifters and Timing Chain and Camshaft sprocket extraction for subsequent balance shaft drive gear removal and Camshaft replacement. Perform a cleaning operation on the Camshaft along with bearing inspections before building the components together. Engine oil replacement should include new filter installation before adding gm engine oil supplement (GM P/N 1052367) or equivalent to the engine oil. Users must start by installing the engine block's Camshaft as the next step involves balancing shaft drive gear and Timing Chain before completing installation with the Camshaft sprocket. Reinstall valve lifters alongside the A/C Condenser and Radiator grille and Radiator before completing the engine cooling system with fluid and restoring air conditioning pressure. Begin by installing the air cleaner assembly and the engine cover as the final steps.
