Phaser Dual-Idler 6.5L Gear Drive Timing Set


This product review first appeared here in The Diesel Page in 1998. Many product reviews have come and gone since that time, and we sometimes forget just how important these can be to owners of the 6.2L and 6.5L diesels.

Available for nearly 20 years, the Phazer Dual-Idler gear drive timing set for the 1994 and newer 6.5L Turbo Diesel replaces the stock chain-driven timing set and the original reluctor wheel used for the crankshaft position sensor. Advertising claims at the time said: "Our "Phaser" performance kit allows 3-5 degrees of timing advance right off the crankshaft, which we found to increase fuel economy, produces cleaner starts, and improves throttle performance." We'll install the Phaser, and independently test the ad claims.

Thanks for sharing the article, Jim! There are still plenty of us 6.5L owners out there who appreciate all the work you've done over the years, and are glad you haven't forgotten us now that the Duramax has taken all the GM diesel spotlight.
