leaks now
I installed tensioner without removing that metal ring around the piston and it did not tension the chain. I heard chain slapping like there is no tension. I removed it and took off that metal ring and piston came out further. Reinstalled tensioner and slapping went away. I guess that ring did not let piston to travel out the housing when oil pressure was applied. The problem now is that oil leaks around tensioner like a sip. Shut the motor and will get back to it tomorrow after work. I can't see around the tesioner but guess I need new seal.
