VVT Ecotecs have 2 actuator solenoids on top of the valve cover. Front end of the engine. If your's does not have these, then it's not a VVT engine. Also, I think when they changed to the VVT 2.2, it was then Flex Fuel capable. Doe's your have a Flex Fuel emblem on the rear hatch ?
sssooo, perhaps I should have asked this already (see post #20 of this thread...) but Im seeing 2 styles of waterpumps available.
one that is chain driven and one that appears belt driven.
the one I ordered was the recommended pump, which looks to be belt driven.
my panel is a 2008 non-VVT 2.2l engine. am I ok with what looks to be a belt driven WP ?
Balance shaft kits don’t usually , I haven’t seen that sprocket worn enough to warrant changing the sprocket. If you leave the front cover on you cannot change it.
