Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 18, 2004 No mate, checked the tensioner bolt earlier and it had air in it. So I bled it and things improved for a while, then the coarsness and lack of power came back, so I'm just wondering if a new bolt will help maintain the pressure on the tensioner blade at high rpms. Worth a shot anyway. I stuck a stethoscope on the tensioner housing and not a hint of chain slap, but I'll inspect it anyway when I do the Schrick.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 19, 2004 Bolt on it's way and also an upper chain rail for good measure, £23 and £7 respectively. K Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
