So i need people to watch this video and tell me if i need a new tensioner or not

if you guys could also help me find a dyi for the cct that'd be awesome




o and after a second count both sides have the same amount of links


ive already spent a lil over $1000 trying to diagnose my missfires and before i spend another dime i wanna be sure.

 

I am assuming you did the obvious and replaced your spark plugs, ignition coil and wires.

I got a misfire code once when I pour some seafoam into the combustion chamber but that was because the seafoam was causing it to stall. I know the cam chain tensioners are expensive as ****.

Here are my guesses. Fucked up knock sensor or fucked up engine speed sensor? If the chains aren't loose, I don't know how the tensioners are malfunctioning. Maybe a dirty MAF?

 

They look pretty tight, but if they are original it's not a bad time to replace them anyway they shouldn't be that expensive. I'm not sure if you have an icm but they are very prone to failure and will cause misfiring, then the obvious like Kanil said (plugs, wires, coils). Make sure your spark plugs are gapped correctly

 

i literaly have tried everything like that, and the icm on my car is attatched to the ignition coils which ive replaced 3 times. plug wires new plugs gaped @.32 new timing components new fuel filter etc.

my maf is brannnn new, and the misfires are only on one side so i doubt any of the listed things would be a component and before anyone says it the cps is brann new too.

the tensioner new is $195 and the tensioner tool is $8.99 so i want to know why this one is not moving, i bought the tool already im waiting for it to arrive so i can inspect the current tensioner. I HAVE BEEN AUDILESS FOR SIX MONTHS i just want this **** to run!

 

UPDATED##

problem solve all 5 timing marks were not matching up so i re did a timing belt job and made sure they all matched.

moral of the story make sure when you do a tbelt job you screw in the crank lock pin all the way.
