Title: Cam chain tensioners Post by Mike(Guest) on 12.07.02 at 19:32:00
Rebuilding my 1983 TR1 and have found that both cam chain tensioners have stripped threads, must be a weak part. Anyone know of any alternatives or fixes as you cannot buy just the bodies and the whole unit is very expensive. Thanks

weak parts? Or a very strong guy? I have the same problem on 1 tensioner. I removed the thick copper gasket and replaced it with some drops of sealing compound, so I can tighten the screw a little more. Greetings Michael |
