[Submerge the entire tensioner in a container of clean engine oil, then work the plunger until all air bubbles are expelled. When difficult to move, it's ready to install.

I have my tensioners out for a top end rebuild and they seem fine. However, should I follow Sherwood's instructions above nevertheless just to make sure all air is out of them before re-installation? Can't see how this can hurt.

Thanks
