timng chain tensioner
i bought the new one from crate engine depot. Now do u just unscrew the old tensioner and screw the new one in and thats it or is there more to it, is any thing going to fall down in the motor when i unscrew the old one. i already got the valve cover off. i've read the how-to but think that was on the old type tensioner. Thanks

you will have to "set" the new one before you slide it in.. but while the VC is off, use a pry tool/screwdriver to make sure the tensioner doesnt fall out. it shouldnt if you do it right. , put the new one in, smack it then it will set
