Just want to confirm, I'm replacing the timing chain tensioners and seals 3 on my 2000 2.7 Boxster. Can swap them one at a time without locking the cams? Two answers above for the same question differ, one from Wayne says this it's ok to swap one at a time "without locking the cam" Denny recommends rotating and locking cams. I have the 5 chain engine. I don't want to don't this wrong, Thank You, J

Personally I always lockt he camshafts, you are better off as it removes a lot of risk. It's best to take every precaution when working on these engines.
