The timing chain tensioner is vital to maintaining not only proper timing, but the life of the chain itself. Generally these will need to be replaced before the chain itself goes bad. Be sure to change yours at the proper intervals to avoid failure.
Used on cyilinders 1-4 to provide tension to the timing chain, this guide rail is a key part that needs to be replaced when servicing the timing chain system.
Keeping tension on your timing chain is imperative for keeping your cams turning properly. If some slop develops in your chain because of a poor tensioner, the timing set can skip a tooth, causing catastrophic damage and potentially ruining your engine. This replacement can keep everything tight.
