Ok, front timing chain tensioner went bad on my 2003 4.0L SOHC at 186,000 miles.
I have already taken apart half the engine so I am closer to pulling it than putting it back together.
Do I repair it and put it back together and hope the rear doesn't fail soon or do I get a new motor and keep driving it for the next 10 years?
If I get a new engine does anyone have recommendations?
Everything about the car is still reasonably good and it drives well.
