Hi,

I suspect you are referring to the sprocket which the timing chain runs on. I found several. Take a look at pic 1 below. That is one example.

This may help you locate what is needed as well. The OEM part number is E8DZ6256A

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe

Hi,

Wow, I see what you mean. I did find a couple of things online for you to check out. The second one listed below seems the most promising.

How bad is the original one?
