Airtex Automotive Division Engine Vvt Sprocket

The Airtex Automotive Division Engine VVT Sprocket is a replacement variable valve timing sprocket, also called a camshaft phaser, cam phaser or VVT cam gear. It is part of the engine's variable valve timing system. The sprocket is driven by the timing chain or belt and adjusts camshaft timing while the engine runs.

Key Features:

• Replaces the original variable valve timing sprocket on the camshaft
• Adjusts camshaft timing to help the engine deliver power when it is needed
• Supports smooth idle, efficient operation and controlled emissions
• Sold under the Airtex Automotive Division brand, an aftermarket supplier of engine management and fluid system components

A worn or failing VVT sprocket can cause rough idle, rattling or ticking at startup, reduced performance, poor fuel economy or timing-related check engine codes. Replacing it restores correct camshaft timing control. It is often replaced together with related timing components and the VVT oil control valve, as the vehicle's service procedure recommends.
