I did the procedures on my 03 2.4 L 2AZ-FE without pulling the timing cover. BIG MISTAKE. No matter how hard and careful I was the timing was off and when I started it it sounded like a sewing machine also the new gear was damaged and had to get a new one. I did go through the lock procedure. I redid the job and did the timing chain, guides, dears, sprockets, and tensioner. The chain was also stretched by 1.5 links. I did replace the guides because they fell apart a soon as i took them out.

Trust me when they and D say to remove the timing cover. I tried to do it without removing the come ver and ended up with a damaged gear and out of time engine. It wasn't my first rodeo on doing this but I thought eh, save time. Nope. I ended doing it twice.
