Subject: RE: Suprise timing chain

Hi Charlie,
Yes I am putting in a nrw chain and getting the valttek tensioner.
After I got it all apart, to my unexperienced eye the chain seemed to
have a bit of play in it so I thought I'd spring for the new chain too.
I would definatly appreciate the "help sheet" you can send it via e-mail
to the above address of fax to 516 484 8706.
Thanks........Vince in NY

Hi Vince,
What type of new tensioner are you installing, Guzzi's spring-loaded one
or the Valtek? Are you doing a timing chain at the same time? If you
need it, I have a "Help Sheet" from Moto International. Guzziology has a
few good helpful tips also if you have it. Cheers,

Charlie.

All this time I thought my 73 eldo had timing gears and not a chain.
Well today I set out to change the oil and lo and behold lots of little
pieces of rubber/plastic in the pan. I remembered from a long ago post
that this was due to the chain tensioner coming apart. Well sure enough
after taking it all apart that is exactly what I found. Quick call to
Harpers and the parts will be in the mail tomorrow. my question to the
group: are there any tricks or precautions I need to know about before
doing what seems to be a simple job? I've never done this before so any
hints would be appreciated.
