Melling will tell you it won't work, but it does. The part in my instructions located at
www.michiganfieroclub.com under techtips will work.
From my instructions:
http://www.michiganfieroclu...iles/4cyltimgear.pdfYou have two replacement choices.
Original fiber (aftermarket and OEM)
Aluminum (Melling (www.melling.com) number 2524 for cam gear or 2538S for cam and crank gear
- please double check with your auto parts store or with Melling, for the correct number)
If you choose the Aluminum gear (2524 or the set 2538S), Melling doesn’t show it as available for
the 87-88 Fiero 4 cyls
"Our parts catalog reflects the data from G.M. a to which part fits what year vehicle. We
have to follow O.E. recommendations for these listings to provide proper warranty
protection for the parts we sell. It may be true that the 2542S will work on a 1987
engine, but G.M. doesn't say so, and we can not warranty any parts used on different
years than what our catalog lists."
