Hello All, Wondering if I need to lock the cam to install three new chain tensioners on my 5 chain 99? Or, will pinning to TDC be sufficient for all three? Or, both??? Thanks!!! Brian

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Pinning should be enough but i would lock each side as u do them jic. The chain really cant jump a tooth but why chance it? I bought one of these, its nice and small and works well with the motor in the car.

I agree. Would this little guy fit a 5 chain 99? I�d hate to discover it won�t fit my application.

Wolfe I'd return it to Costco. I know it's a tough decision with a big item that you've already invested in assembling. But that's exactly what the manufacturer was betting on when they skimped on QC. I returned mine to Costco and felt so much better afterwards.
