Good morning all,
In checking the health of my motor, I took the timing chain covers off to check for slack. At this moment I'm not ready for anything like the carrera tensioner upgrade, as I still don't have the engine running right. However, I did check for slack and everything seems to be tight and the chains have good tension on them.
Is there any maintenance or adjusting I should do while I'm here? What about some kind of safety stop for the chains, as I've read about but couldn't find any detailed info on?
Also, do I have to do anything fancy with oiling these suckers up, or just bolt it all back together and top off the engine oil level?
