Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ The Ultimate Performance Upgrade: Cloyes 9-4201SX Timing Chain Unleashed! by Chris Dildine

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Runs fine for 500 miles and 3 weeks

Runs fine for 500 miles and 3 weeks then the tensioner (for the timing chain) started leaking randomly causing the engine to stall for 2 seconds after the Start rattled heavily . Of course there really is no guarantee on the components unless you return the entire set so the guarantee via Amazon is worthless and I had to spend more money locally to replace the defective part. If you do this yourself, be sure to remove the paper. a thin metal shim from the timing chain crankshaft sprocket when installed - it hides the actual timing mark. Also watch the Cloyes video on YouTube before doing this. Maybe your tensioner works better - good luck.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
