Tommy,
I responded to your email, but the email address you gave must have an error. We do not have new PRIMARY Timing Chains in stock.

The Primary chain is very robust & I don't recall having ever heard of a failed one. I thought your problem was with the Secondary Timing Chain Guide Facing.

What does it look like with the primary chain tensioner set?
How worn is the contact face?

I see your concern.
How many KM or miles on the chain?

I have seen instances where there is not enough adjustment on the primary tensioner to remove all the slack. It may be necessary to shim under the wear face on the primary guide. Some aluminum or steel sheet stock of the proper thickness works if all else fails.

Jerry is right, the primary chain is very stout and I’ve never known of one to fail.

If the block has been line honed, it’s likely there will be excess slack.
