Cam Chain Tensioner Resetting Tool - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

No football today so spent some time in the shop.
Dicided I had enough with resetting chain tensioners the old fashion way using a small screwdriver, metal scribe, patients and a little luck.
Made up these two little tools which make the job literally a snap.
After fully compressing the tensioner on the drill press with a 1/4" rod chucked up the outer sleeve of the tool is pushed down on the inner plunger which sets the locking ring in the outer cylinder.
