Ok i have quick question, I just timed my motor. The push rod on the hydrolic tensioners fell under the specs of .15-.18 Can i leave it or do i half to do it till i get it within the specific range. Thanks for the help
 
GET IT WITHIN SPEC. NO QUESTIONS ASKED. Trust me on this. Also, crank your motor over 6 revolutions to realign your timing marks and LET IT SIT for at least 15 minutes before checking tension spec.
