Well after many weeks of hearing the timing chain rattling I finally got the timing cover to check (l20B) out what was going on on inspection nothing came to mind until we took the tensioner out it was blocked to the point that when pulling the tensioner out of its body there was a vacuum so with new oil it must have had just enough oil pressure to make itself useful but as it got nearer a oil change it was worse anyway fired her up again with new tensioner guides etc and she's great. One prob was as the chain was slack it has worn the dow that lubricates the chain ( I think thats what it does) is just about the crankshaft sprocket, I dont think it will hurt it didn't look worn through to the oil passage just. so am a fairly happy boy again : ))
