Detailed Description

Cloyes Timing Chain Kit 9-0738SVVT1 is engineered for Ford and Lincoln engines that use variable valve timing. The kit is built to support a complete timing system repair by combining the major wear items and control components in one package, helping restore accurate cam timing and stable engine operation. The chain uses a metal, steel construction with an inverted tooth, single roller design, along with a 31-inch chain length, 254 links, and a 0.25-inch pitch for the specified applications.

The Cloyes Timing Chain Kit line focuses on complete repair coverage and precise fitment. For technicians and DIY mechanics working on a Ford Explorer timing chain kit, Ford Mustang timing chain kit, or Ford F-150 timing chain kit application, this assembly provides the timing components needed for a thorough service. It also applies to select Lincoln MKX, MKZ, MKS, and Continental models listed in the fitment data.

This part cross-references 90738SVVT1 for the same application.

What This Timing Kit Helps Address

• Timing chain stretch or wear
• Noise from worn chain guides or tensioner components
• Cam timing errors related to VVT system wear
• Rough running caused by timing system degradation
• Check engine light conditions tied to timing correlation faults

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine code, timing configuration, and VIN-specific fitment before installation. Because this is a VVT timing chain kit, proper camshaft phaser alignment and timing mark setup are critical during assembly. Replace related wear components as needed and follow the factory service procedure for tensioning and timing verification.
