@ P and A!

Yeah, there's a search button, use it. Timing chain tensioner is your issue. Around $75 for a new one and your problem's solved. Takes less than 30 minutes like classicaddict states. Around 15 minutes with 10mm socket. 5 minutes to pull the valvecover, 1 minute to ziptie cam gears, 4 minutes to replace tensioner, 5 minutes to install valvecover.

When you put the tensioner in make sure you have it latched onto itself. Its pretty self explanitory when you look at it but hey we are here to hold your hand.

hahahaha, how old are you?


if you want smart ass heres smart ass.


if you claim to have swapped an engine yourself why the **** would you ask if you need to pull the head to replace a timing chain tensioner???????? removing the head would mean you need to remove the chain first........whats the first thing you do after removing the timing cover to pull the chain off? the tensioner. ergo to pull the head off the very first thing you do is remove the tensioner......i.e. your question= dumb as ****.

Because it only takes tension on one side to keep the chain on the teeth on all the gears, give it some thought! =)
