Dorman - OE Solutions Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Sprocket P/N:917-257
Dorman 917-255 VVT sprocket for the 2002-2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer 6-cylinder 4.2L and other vehicles replaces a worn factory sprocket in the engine's variable valve timing system. Sometimes listed as an engine variable valve timing sprocket, it is key to engine performance and clean running.
Lost performance, rough running or a check engine light can mean a worn sprocket, though these signs alone do not prove it is the problem; a faulty oil control solenoid is another common cause.
It is listed for a wide range of models from Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Isuzu and Oldsmobile, including the 2002-2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT 6-cylinder 4.2L and the 2002-2004 GMC Envoy 6-cylinder 4.2L, and each takes one. It is designed to install and perform like the original sprocket. If your vehicle is not named here, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section to see whether it is listed.
