Bad tensioners, what do you think!

Hi all!
I have made a forum for all who have probs with Camchain and bad tensioners in the 24-v Cosworth engines! I will collect all owners who have or had those problems on a list, I am trying to let the Ford and Cosworth co give us all, new parts for free or Ford must  
mount new tensioners and chains for free.
It's time for them to take resposible for the mistake they have done when they made our engines  Angry
If you think this is a good idea, let me know what you
think!
I'm a bit crappy to write in English hope you understand me!  
Best regards
Kjelle...

Kjelle, I guess the real problem is actually the chain getting wear/exstended and not the tensioner, and I can't imagine that ford will pay for that, unfortunely. I've started a little "project" in order to try to eliminate the start up rattle, just wait and see how it goes. But please advise FORD that there is a big problem with the camshaftdrive.  But I think they are allready aware of it.

Good idea Rubbersmoke but I can't see Ford doing anything about a car they made over 6 years ago & didn't I read somewhere Ford have now sold Cosworth or something? So they will certainly not be interested.
I think we are on are own!
