Product Details

Cloyes designs and manufactures timing components using CAD-based engineering and advanced materials, then tests each part for function and durability. This timing chain tensioner is built to meet or exceed OEM performance requirements and is intended for engines that use a hydraulic or spring-loaded tensioning system. For timing service, Cloyes recommends replacing the chain tensioner, sprockets, and guides together when the chain is replaced to help restore proper chain control and timing stability. This part cross-references Dayco 95338 and F6AZ6L266CA for the same application.
