Engine Timing Tool Kit – Precision Camshaft & Crank Alignment for Porsche M96 & M97 Engines
This Engine Timing Tool Kit provides the essential precision tools required to correctly check and set camshaft and crankshaft timing on a wide range of Porsche models, including the 911 (996 & 997.1), Boxster 986, and 987.1 Boxster / Cayman models using the M96 and M97 engines.
Accurate valve timing is vital for the performance, reliability and safety of these flat-six engines. Even slight misalignment can cause misfires, cam deviation faults, loss of power or—in the worst cases—serious mechanical damage. This professional-grade timing kit ensures perfect alignment during rebuilds, timing chain service, camshaft replacement or diagnostic inspection.
Supplied in a durable storage case, the kit includes equivalents to specialist tools typically referenced under engineering codes 9685, 9686, 9595 and 9595/1.

What an Engine Timing Tool Kit Does
A professional timing kit ensures precise and secure
alignment of internal engine components by:
- Locking camshafts in the exact timing position
- Holding
the crankshaft at top dead centre for correct reference
- Allowing
accurate valve timing during assembly and inspection
- Supporting timing chain and tensioner setup
- Ensuring safe and repeatable timing for diagnostics and rebuilds
- Preventing rotational movement while critical components are serviced
This ensures optimal combustion, smooth running and long-term reliability.
Why Engine Timing Components Fail or Require Adjustment
The M96 and M97 engines are known for timing-related service
demands. Common causes for requiring a timing tool kit include:
- Timing
chain stretch leading to cam deviation
- Worn tensioners or chain guides
- Rebuild procedures requiring camshaft removal
- IMS-related service or bearing replacement
- Incorrect timing after previous repairs
- Top-end overhaul or valve-train replacement
Symptoms can include rough idle, hesitation, fault codes, loss of power or unusual noises.
Why You Should Use Your Timing Tool Kit
Using a precise, high-quality timing tool kit
ensures:
- Accurate camshaft and crankshaft alignment
- Correct valve timing for optimal engine performance
- Prevention of piston-to-valve contact
- A faster, more reliable rebuild process
- Professional results consistent with engineering specifications
- Better diagnostic capability for timing-related faults
A worn or incomplete tool kit risks incorrect timing and potentially catastrophic engine damage.

Porsche Classic has also developed a new tool bag for the Porsche 911 G models from the model years 1983 to 1989. The design convinces with the successful combination of leather and black and white pinstripe velour. In the 1980s, this design was a very popular trim level. All metal parts are matte black, reminiscent of the exterior trim elements of the late 911 G models.
In addition to those tools that can also be found in the 911 pocket for the model years 1974 to 1982, there are additional tools for emergency operation in the event of a defective sunroof or window lift motor. Compared to the bags of the early G-models, this bag has a towing eye with a screw thread.
