Review on πŸ”§ ACDelco GM OEM 12608580 Timing Chain Tensioner Kit + Seal by Brian Summers

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The part you need when your Ecotec engine rattles when you start it.

No starting noise on 2005 Chevy Cobalt LS with 2.2L Ecotec engine. The valve cover was removed and installation was simple and straightforward. You must ensure that this tensioner is activated before starting the engine, otherwise there is a risk that the chain will jump over a tooth and cost you a lot of extra time and expense. , just buy a shim kit (Fel-Pro) and get it right just to be sure. Now the engine sounds perfect and runs smoothly.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Weight
