    86 gs550e Cam chain inspection

    Hi all i while i have my valve cover off to replace the gasket i want to inspect my cam chain , should there be any slack between sprockets (there is)or any up or down movement in the middle between sprockets, it just seems kinda loose and i hear a kind of slapping sound at low idle, i have adjusted the valves previously Thanks

    Make sure that camchain tensioner is doing its thing and not frozen/locked. Make sure that you understand how it's supposed to work. It is a simple device but it baffles some.
