Tsu CA Timing Chain Tensioner Guide

The Tsu CA Timing Chain Tensioner Guide line offers replacement engine timing chain guides, also called chain tensioner guides or tensioner slippers. They help keep the timing chain correctly positioned and under tension. Each guide works with the timing chain tensioner. It controls chain movement so the crankshaft and camshaft stay in sync and valve timing stays correct.

Key Features:

• Direct replacement design for the corresponding OEM timing chain guide part numbers
• Built from durable, heat-resistant materials made to handle high engine temperatures and constant chain friction
• Precision-molded for proper chain guidance and a correct fit
• Helps reduce timing chain slack, noise and vibration
• Helps protect against a loose chain or skipped teeth, which can cause engine damage

Timing chain guides are wear items. Inspect them whenever you service the timing chain, and replace them if they are worn or damaged. A worn guide can cause rattling or metallic noises from the engine, excess chain movement and improper valve timing. Replacing the guide during timing chain service or an engine rebuild helps restore quiet, reliable operation. Timing component work needs access to the engine timing cover, so a qualified technician should do it.
