I believe the M177 tensioner is oil pressure only, which is why the 380 tends to break chains. Lots of slap on start-up, and the plastic guide has a piece that is easily snapped off. That broken part falls into the crank sprocket and snaps the chain. One cure for that it to cut the "ear" off

Best thing to do is crank the engine without letting it start to build oil pressure. You can just pull the wire off the coil. Many mechanics do this when changing the oil so the engine doesn’t run without pressure to the tensioner. Even better, remove the plugs also and crank it. The engine
