Title: Failed 24V tensioners
Post by tlundkvi on Mar 11^th, 2010, 11:36am

Hi all,

If anyone happens to have lying around a pair of failed 24V BOB cam chain tensioners for "educational purposes", I'll buy them for a reasonable amount + postage costs.

Nobody having a hopelessly destroyed BOB engine after a timing chain & tensioner failure? I'm just after broken/failed ones I can take apart to see how easy they are to fix with new service parts.

Yes and these I have bought, but it's a service kit based on the pictures. That's why I would like to dissect some known failed ones before going over on the ones in my car.
