Mercury Cougar Timing Cover Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: How to remove and install Timing Cover on Mercury Cougar?
A: To remove the fan and water pump, first drain the engine oil and remove the oil filter; for supercharged engines, also remove the oil cooler. Next, take off the crankshaft vibration damper and unbolt all brackets attached to the timing cover, ensuring to tie the power steering pump aside with hoses still connected. For air-conditioned models, leave the compressor in place while removing its front support bracket. Position the number one piston at TDC on the compression stroke, then remove the distributor or synchronizer and intermediate shaft. After that, remove the Oil Pan and unbolt the ignition timing indicator. Gently tap the timing cover loose with a soft-face hammer to separate it from the block, being cautious not to use excessive force, and double-check that all bolts are removed, especially the one under the oil filter housing. For installation, use a gasket scraper to clean all surfaces of old gasket material and sealant, then clean them with lacquer thinner or acetone. Lubricate the Timing Chain and crankshaft front oil seal lips with engine oil, apply a thin coat of ATV sealant to the block side of the new gasket, and position it on the engine. Then, apply sealant to the gasket surface of the cover and attach it, ensuring the gasket remains in place. Install the bolts finger tight and only tighten them to the specified torque after installing the water pump, as some bolts also secure the timing cover. Reinstall the oil pan and the remaining parts in reverse order of removal, ensuring to install the oil cooler for supercharged models. Finally, add engine oil and coolant, run the engine, set the ignition timing, and check for leaks.
