To remove the timing chain on a 2012 Yamaha XT 250, follow these steps:

1. Disconnect the wire harness from the T-stud of the vehicle frame.
2. Align the mark “a” on the camshaft sprocket with mark “b” on the cylinder head by turning the crankshaft counterclockwise until the piston is at the compression stroke.
3. Loosen the camshaft sprocket bolt using a wrench.
4. Remove the camshaft sprocket plate and camshaft sprocket.
5. Remove the timing chain tensioner along with its gasket.
6. Remove the timing chain guide (exhaust side).
7. To prevent the timing chain from falling into the crankcase, fasten it securely before removal.

Reverse the procedure for installation.
