CL 77 Cam Chain Tensioner Pin Movement

Post by uadmlj1 » Thu Oct 13, 2011 10:15 am

Once the retaining bolt is loosened, how much in/out movement should there be in the pin as you rotate the engine? Mine is maybe only 1/4 inch.

Sounds about right. Tighten the locking bolt when it's the furthest in.

Don't even think about it! I don't post much because I don't know much. Thanks for your contribution comments. I read them all at least once, some even more!

You could stop at 2012 in solidarity with the doomsday crowd ;}.
Seriously though, +1 on the thanks for your help Davo, always appreciated.
