[QUOTE="RavFJR, post: 1438526, member: 20575"] Going to answer my own question... Yes indeed, everything needs to come out to replace either chain guide or blade tensioner (both cams and the chain). I'm not completely sure, but I believe that the damage I see is superficial...at least I hope. With the valve cover off, I flushed the chain with oil and did get the broken threads to ooze out. At this point I'm going to button it up, and when I get the chance, take it to a repair shop. Going in for surgery next month, so no time to work this at the moment. Damn... 😩 [/QUOTE]
