all input is welcome!
i've done some research including searching this board and the general concensus appears to recommend replacing the chain guides around 100k and to check the chain for slack. as my car has driven over 100k and is 24 years young i'm going to replace the now brittle guides and while we in there also replace the 24 year old chain as labor is the major expense on this job.
this work will be cheaper then a guide breaking and the chain jumping.
