You can do it yourself,just do a search here regarding it and buy a chain,tensioner,the top three rails ,three pair of quality vice grips and you are ready to go.
BTW,how do you tune down a car to pass emissions?
it sounds like they leaned out the idle mixture. a sure way to destroy the exhaust valves. Get "them" to retune the engine correctly.

I can't handle a timing chain job.
Can I drive it 10 miles to the shop for a sound check?
Enrique always never heard anything but I think this sound is a different sound then the normal tapping of my valves.
I guess they leaned it to pass..the smog place did it. I went to the one Enrique recommened & they did pass it & this car has a hard time from passing for many years as it wasn;t used much.
I guess if it needs a tune I can bring it to Enrique
I haven't been using the car til I source the problem which if its the chain I know is not good.
Thanks
