Replaced water pump, new chain, guides and tensioner.
When barring the engine over the new timing tensioner is not holding pressure against the guide. About every half revolution the chain gets tighter and the tensioner piston pops back inside the housing. Turn a little more and it pops back out...
I'm thinking it's because it uses oil pressure to maintain tension but I dunno...
Not going to button it up until I figure it out. Thanks
