Carreras tensioner upgrade

[rickpollman]

I just installed the left side tensioner and the new chain sprocket idler but there appears to be about an eighth of inch space on the idler shaft is there a spacer for in between the timing case and the sprocket idler????

[psychoideas]

Yes I believe there is.

Could you post a photo?

Are your idler arms the later style or the early style with a spacer?

Yes they are the new chain sprocket idlers arms from pelican parts

Then no spacer needed.

there is enough space for this screw driver to slide in

Per 84-86 katalog there is no spacer, but take note you do need a seal as I a sure you are aware.

Master JW knows.
