K-Tuned High-Performance Tensioner Cover - Ideal for All K20 and K24 Engines
The K-Tuned Tensioner Cover Plate features a simple o-ring seal set in a machined groove on the back. This smart design speeds up and simplifies timing chain tensioner checks and changes. No more messy sealers that are a hassle to clean! Moreover, the OEM stamped steel cover often bends when pried off, but our cover eliminates this issue.
Why is checking the chain tensioner crucial? Regular inspection for wear or damage is a must. A failing tensioner can ruin your engine. The timing chain tensioner keeps the timing chain in place, ensuring your engine runs at the right timing.
Our K-Tuned Tensioner Cover Plate is precision-machined from 6061 billet aluminum and comes with new hardware for easy installation. Remove the OEM black cover and clean the mounting surface one last time. A razor blade, green scotch brite pad, and brake cleaner work great. Then, install our bolt-on plate. You can remove and reinstall it multiple times without using any sealer.
Using this K-Tuned tensioner cover is a breeze. First, take off the original black cover and clean the mounting surface with a razor blade, a green scotch brite pad, and brake cleaner. This ensures a proper fit. Then, simply bolt on our cover using the new hardware that comes with it. It doesn't need any sealer, so you can easily remove and reinstall it when checking or changing the timing chain tensioner. As for maintenance, just keep an eye on the o-ring seal. If it shows signs of wear, it might be time to replace it. Also, during regular engine check - ups, give the cover a quick look for any signs of damage. And remember, checking the chain tensioner regularly is important to keep your engine running smoothly.
