[QUOTE="Maddog, post: 546146, member: 569"] Radman - What you say is consistent with my recollection of reported issues on this forum. Tensioners can be a problem and maybe chain replacement would be prudent approaching this milage. But the guides are the expensive part of what has been proposed (and in my mind questionable as to need), so I am leaning toward your suggestion of changing out the tensioner and seeing how it goes. By the way, oil changes were performed every 4000 miles and since 12,000 miles I have been using Shell Rotella synthetic exclusively. [/QUOTE]
