How did you get your new timing chain tight? @130k miles and I changed mine, but, the new one is just as loose. Is there a way to adjust the tension?
@davesgarage782 жыл бұрын
It was a new set, gears and chain. There is no adjustment

The engine ran fine with the old chain. I would not have known it was stretched by the way it ran.

I bought it with a spun main bearing. I cleaned up and installed a salvage engine in it the same week this was filmed. It has been daily driven for the last 2 years. I still have the old engine and may rebuild it some day.

The back end had to stick out of the garage to make room for the crane. We moved it forward so the garage door would clear.
