Just a follow up on the chain tensioner. I previously mentioned that I had read that the new tensioners do not use oil pressure--only spring pressure. The Swag tensioner I got today appears to have the hole in the tensioner for oil (picture) as well as a hole in the gasket. So I guess it's still using oil pressure.
Also, the box is labeled Swag, but there is a paper in the box that says that Febi inspects all Febi hydraulic chain tensioners. Are Febi and Swag the same company?
