My timing chain has eaten through the water lines in the timing cover. I have ordered a timing chain kit with the metal backed tensioners... but where can I find a good timing cover? I checked on ebay and there is a listing for a KA24E truck engine timing cover and when I emailed the seller he said that he has sold 2 of these items specifically to 89-90 240sx owners and they have worked. I have posted the link below. My question is... "Will the timing chain cover work on my 1989 240sx, KA24E???"

This is my other choice. The auction indicates that it is for 90-95 (zc11). This is obviously not for my KA-E, as it looks nothing like it!

I happen to have a ka24e timing cover that I purchased from my local Nissan dealership. I bought it before I wrecked my 1990.

$85 shipped if you want it.

Yeah, two questions though...

1. Could you send me a picture?

2. Would you accept PayPal?
