Title: Cam chain adjustment
Post by: AndyBCcoast on April 14, 2022, 09:43:22 AM
Hi, I am prepping my 1984 FJ1100 for a trip in May and would like to make sure the cam chain tension is correct.  How do I go about this?  I do not have any chain rattle, I just want to make sure that the tension is correct, before I head off.

Greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks

Andy

Glad to help....I remember putting that post together....but it was over 10 years ago? No way.....

I remember that there was a specific correct way to install the cam chain tensioner.....
