My cam chain tensioner was leaking and I read the how-to and ordered the seals/o-rings and fixed it. It doesn't leak now. I looked over the maintenance section of my Haynes manual and saw no where does it address re-tensioning the cam chain (or I missed it). Do you turn the spring thing on the right side to tension? My cam chain sounds a tad noisier than I would have expected and I would like to make sure it is tensioned properly.

It's fully automatic, you don't need to do anything, if it's working and if you installed it correctly.
Did you release the set screw on the left side, and tighten the locknut with the screw a little bit loose?
If you did it should tension itself correctly. If you didn't it won't tension anything at all. -
It is OK then... thanks!Comment
