hi,
i have been trying to adjust the cam chain properly with your help but have run into a slight problem and need more advice.
i have lined up the T mark with the rotor to find TDC and then adjusted the tensioner plunger with the outer adjuster bolt until its flush.
then i rotated the engine to check the setting but just before it rotated 360 back to the T mark on the rotor the tensioner plunger made a clicking sound and popped out 3mm, then i turned it a little further so the T was aligned and it retracted and was flush again.
so my question is where should i have done the adjustment from ? from the T mark where i think TDC is or from a little before that where it popped out. because as the way i have done it, the plunger does pop out 3mm when i rotate the engine. hope this makes sense.
would like to get this right before i inadvertantly break something
