Reply To: Cam chain tensioner
Hi,
Recently I had to remove the cylinder head of my GT250 to check a valve related issue.
In order to remove the cams one has to release the tension on the chain from the chain tensioner. As per manual I undid the 2 outer bolts whist leaving the settings bolt untouched.
I have now reassembled everything and I have found out that chain is already well tensioned even before the 2 outside bolts are fully tightened.
The instruction manual I have, is quite hopeless when it comes to explain the correct way to achieve proper tension.
Can somebody please advise?
Regards
joe
