Oh Baldy, paging Mr. Baldy...

Jim, thanks for the photos.

Isn't that new tensioner about $150 each?
Is there a torque value for tightening the tensioner?
Is there one on the other side on the bottom, easy to get to?
Both need to be replaced?
Do you think all GS 1150s need the new tensioner? Is it one of those parts that will have a problem sooner or later?
Just curious, I followed some earlier posts about the tensioner fixing noisey engines.

Is this normal goop on a BMW throttle body?

configurationspace · 02-22-2005, 05:20 PM

I believe this is only for the left-side tensioner. Nobody seems to have troubles with the right-side one.

In the BMW service manual under Engine -> Timing chain -> Chain tensioner they have 32Nm listed. They also mention you should replace the seal every time you remove the tensioner. I can't seem to get a complete P/N for the gasket/seal. It's ?? ?? ? 963 308. I don't know what the first 5 digits are, the MAX BMW fiche doesn't want to give them to me.
