Camchain tension

(1/3) > >>

Safo:
Didnt see tensioner bolt move, or hear anything when I loosened the locknut, am I right in thinking I I can repeat the process to if I undo the locknut, then pull the bolt and retighten the nut, rebuilt the motor its been a long rebuild with many obstacles.

Nurse Julie:
Was the horse shoe pivot nice and free and loose when you re fitted it to the engine?

AshimotoK0:
Is this a 500/or 550 engine? .. do you mean 400 Julie? Or do you mean another bit like horse shoe?

Yep, I was thinking 400 Ash (even though it's posted under 500/550 🙄🙄🙄🙄). As soon as I see mention of cam chain adjustment my head goes straight in to 400/4 mode 😊😊😊😊

Bryanj:
Pulling the bolt or even worse putting a screwdriver in the slot can damage the tensioner mechanism so much its almosr junk.
