Subaru Outback Variable Timing Sprocket
The Subaru Outback's Variable Timing Sprocket functions to optimize the engine's breathing performance across the rev range. Acting like the cam gear in the timing chain set of the engine, the Variable Timing Sprocket carries out its function, lining up with crank marks to keep the pistons and valves in sync. In factory setting, a simple match of the stamped marks will deliver reliable operation. However, performance builders soon discovered that even a two-degree misalignment can rob dozens of horsepower. As such, later versions of the Variable Timing Sprocket incorporated multiple keyways, slotted hubs, or offset bushings that allowed owners to fine-tune cam phasing with a degree wheel. Earlier Outback engines relied on a single fixed timing mark. Later Outback models gained the adjustable style. This meant you could advance the timing for stronger low rpm pull or retard it for top end surge. According to Subaru, when replacing the Variable Timing Sprocket, a complete kit comprising the crank sprocket, chain, guides, and tensioner should be fitted to ensure correct alignment. By adhering to this procedure, uneven wear is prevented while the Variable Timing Sprocket does not drift out of spec over thousands of miles. This ensures that every Subaru boxer engine provides the expected torque and efficiency to the driver.

Subaru Outback Variable Timing Sprocket Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q:How to Remove and Install a Timing Belt and Variable Timing Sprocket on a Subaru Outback?Posted by Jamie E.A:When the timing belt is replaced, the water pump and the timing belt tensioners should always be replaced at the same time. To remove the timing belt, put your engine in TDC position on cylinder number one and disconnect battery. Then remove drive belts and other parts like air intake ducts as well as air filter housing that are necessary. Remove the engine cooling fan(s) and shroud then use a breaker bar with socket to take out bolt from crankshaft pulley. Use hand or screwdriver to take off crankshaft pulley. For non-turbocharged engines, get rid of outer belt covers and also the guide for timing belt. Rotate crankshaft until marks on sprockets align with notches on inner timing belt cover, oil pump and cylinder head seam. Mark these alignment marks together with direction of rotation using paint.Remove idler pulley and sprocket then take away timing belt. If sprockets have to be changed out, remove crankshaft pulley sprocket, camshaft sprockets and also timing belt tensioner.For turbocharged versions eliminate outer timing belts guides including covers.Turn crankshaft so that grooves on sprockets are aligned with notches on backside of timing belts cover or rear cover of cylinder's head.Mark these alignment marks along with how this band spins or changes with paint.Introduce locking devices into camshaft sprocket locations alongside removal idler pulley; thereafter do away with another device known as toothed one.To replace damaged wheels only which include crank shaft one together with a few others like that belonging to timer's tape tensioning gear pull out all such pieces.Carefully inspect tensioner and idler for roughness, backlash etc, examine condition of timer's tape-presence/absence of lateral cracks, signs wear due to operation.Follow relevant steps for models without turbo chargers or turbo charged when putting new rubber on. Finally install crankshaft pulley and all others such as covers of timer's tapes. Include the above remaining steps in this process too.Answered by Subaru Parts Specialist Edgar / Dec 30, 2024
