How to tighten timing chain ?
My timing chain on my 94 E320 is showing a little slack. What is the proper way to tighten the timing chain and what is the tension?
Will appreciate any help. Thanks |

That is done by the timing chain tensioner. NO external adjustment. Controlled by oil pressure & internal ratchet inside of the tensioner.
