RS - you provided me with some fine input a few days ago regarding the timing chaín, and you revealed a deaper understnding of these matters, since you apparently own the same wonderful machine as I do, featuring a robust 8-valve engine. You will probably be able to answer this:
I know where to look for the timing chain tensioner of a 16 valve engine, but it does not look like mine, and so I haven't been able to locate the device...Is it behind the electricity-generator (- the device usualy termed "A/C" or "A/C compressor"?? - what is that thing AC or as often written: A/C ??).
If so, how does one access it the easiest for an inspection to see, whether the gap is still shorter than 11 mm...?
Mike
