New timing chain, misfire on 1-3-5

Good afternoon,

I would do a compression test on 1,3 and 5. Just need to be sure there are no bent valves as this is an interference engine.

Clearly a safe assumption but you did the timing chain on the right bank (passenger side)?

What was the reason for replacing the timing chain and were there misfires like this before hand?

The fact that we have these misfires on all cylinders we need to ensure timing is correct. As you will see from the highlighted portion, just rotating the engine over to see if the marks are aligned is not how we confirm timing.

However, before we reset timing we need to remove the OCV and check the screen for metal. If there is metal it will obstruct the operation. The OCV is the center bolt in the front of the camshaft. Also, we need to make sure the phaser is returning to the lock pin when the engine is off.

If this checks out then we need to do a compression check but we will get to that after this.

Let's start with this information and go from there. Thanks
