Timing chain not broken

Tuesday, June 14, 2005 5:16 PM

Well before my father in law said my timing chain broke. He was tearing it apart today and found out the chain wasn't broke. I haven't talked ot him but my wife said he thinks it's a sensor. Any feed back?

Some info about whats going on would help.

Normally your car wouldn't run at all (and make some TERRIBLE noises just trying to turn it over).

yeah I know but I don't have much more info than that. Wish I did. If my chain is stretched then that's ok cause my chain and all the tensioners are getting replaced anyways!

What caused you guys to think the timing chain was bad? What was the car doing?

Mine was getting good spark and fuel. Compression was good also. I tore into it and the tensioner was OK. The chain had stretched slightly.
