Good morning
Return to Transit use after many years (bought a camper couple years or so back)
can anyone explain the difference with the "modified" tensioner for the MK6 2.4 chain tensioner.
From what I can see the set angle and locking ratchet.
I have put new head - cam box and inlet rocker shaft also changed damaged rockers, but on fitting the chain kit supplied by engineering company I found even on the small amount of revolutions by hand there was a distinct "Weep" at the base of the tensioner face ? so basically removed cleaned and thinking there may have been something in between the faces i replace but leaked again. As a test I decided to put old tensioner back this did not leak.
Long story short decided to fit OEM FAI kit but looking at the tensioner it is different altogether. I have fitted many of these FAI kits on previous occasions (but not on transits) maybe better the devil you know.
Has any one fitted this type of tensioner ?
