Hi All! Newb to the site (also on the other as well). Wondering if anyone has ever replaced timing chain? I think the tensioner on my daughters 09 Vibe 1.8 158K, failed and the chain jumped. Chain is loose between cam sprockets, have no compression cylinder 3,4,2 and weak in cylinder 1, and cannot get chain links to match up with VVT sprocket marks. I'm guessing that I probably should have changed the tensioner as routine maintenance, but too late for that now. Other info: Ran fine w/ no noise prior to and next day would not fire. Air, fuel, and spark all confirmed.
Consider myself better than average wrench, but this looks to be a major undertaking and would appreciate any suggestions or advice. Thanks JO
