Well, I think it is my timing chain. Specifically I think the tension has failed, but I’m going to be replacing the timing chain and guides just as a preventative measure.

I was just wondering because im actually having the same problem at the moment, i put in a new upgraded timing chain in last summer but i used a cheap primary tensioner i think thats what my property is so i bought a expensive tensioner this time and the stop block for preventive measures

yeah, I think you definitely should get that new tensioner in. That’s something at least if you can afford it that I wouldn’t cheap out on is stuff inside the engine because I wouldn’t want to tear it apart to put another part in that I just replaced. That’s just me.

Ya this new tensioner was $85 i think i payed like $17 for the last one so im hoping this one does better. I decided to get the block stop because i know these are interference engines so i would like to prevent my pistons fromvsmashing my brand new valves if i can incase the tensioner decided to brake
