[TR] Timing Chain question

Not if the stock fan & fan extension are in place.  But it's not too bad if
they were previously removed.

Probably just the tensioner; but if you do replace the chain, I would
suggest replacing both sprockets at the same time.  They tend to wear to
match, so replacing one will cause it to wear quickly to match the other.

I also just recently realized that there is supposed to be a fiber washer on
the post that supports the center of the timing cover.  The washer was not
included in the gasket set I have, so I cut one from a TR2 air filter
gasket.

Also consider installing a Speedi-sleeve on the hub, if you can feel the
mark where the seal rides.
