milestone reached. you should be stoked.
timing cover looks minty.
I don't know. Passenger side stuff...
Again, not sure. Driver side stuff.
Just take stock of the fact that we got the timing cover off and out without lifting the engine.
This picture shows the hydraulic tensioner being locked down so we can introduce enough slack into the system to remove the chains. You lift the link (its resting on the allen key pin I have in the pic) so that the tensioner pushes out all the way...then you can pry it back carefully and when it locks, insert a pin (allen key) to hold it in place. This was tricky for me. One thing that should be mentioned is that it is full of oil so continue to actuate it to dump the oil and make it easier on yourself.
