Calling for clarification. Cam tensioner
My cam tensioner is getting louder and im sick of hearing it on start-ups. So, time to change.
What comes with it. tensioner, chain, new bolts? what else would i need?
Also would this be a good time to replace the 1 cam seal that's located towards the front?????
Calling ETka guru again for part #(s)
Thanks

The tensioner has a seal set that should also be replaced with it.
You can reuse the old bolts, the chain as well. Just replace the tensioner and the seal set.

Oh yeah, almost forgot
You'll need an extra Cam Tensioner compressor T3366. Especially if you want to replace it without having to remove both camshafts. I would also mark gear postion to the chain with some White-Out so everything goes back all lined up.
