Maintenance & Troubleshooting

Good Maintenance Practices

Before purchasing and installing an engine timing chain tensioner, make sure it is the correct size and fit for your vehicle.
Be sure to have timing marks lined up when replacing any timing component.
Have proper tension on timing chain or belt to prevent vehicle from jumping time.
Have your vehicle inspected as soon as possible if the ‘Service Engine Soon' light illuminates.
Have your vehicle inspected immediately if the ‘Service Engine Soon' light flashes rapidly, as this could indicate an engine misfire condition which may damage your engine and/or engine emission components.
Regularly inspect tensioner for signs of damage or wear, and replace them if signs of damage are found.
