About this part
This Cloyes part tensions the primary timing chain, the one driven by the crankshaft. It mounts in the center position and has a white and gray finish. Cloyes says its tensioners meet or exceed OEM performance, are CAD designed from premium materials and are tested for fit and durability. The company recommends renewing the tensioners, sprockets and guides together when a chain is replaced.
