Oil pump chain tension - DeeTurbo - 10-06-2017
Hi,
I've noticed there is more slack then I thought there would be on the chain to the oil pump.
Is there a auto tensioner on these engines or is the slack normal?

Fairly normal for there to be some slack, although i expect 340k of wear has got something to do with it. So long as you can't make it slip a tooth it'll be fine.

check the tooth wear, theres no tensioner but there is a shim under the pump. only one size though.

Nice one, thanks guys.
I did check the sprocket for wear and it looks good.
Chain is a little loose on it but no where near slipping off or teeth.
I should have videoed the movement of the chain for your opinion but it sounds fine.
