Exclamation SOme questions about *****.com website and timing chain tensioner

Does that website still work. I have never visited it but i have seen links to it that never work. Did it ever work whats up with it? did it change name or whats up???

when everything got moved to the new server just about every link was censored. my question is why?

i don't want to go off topic just had to throw that in. the tenser works in the same fashion as the lifters do. it can stick just as the lifters do. if im not mistaken the site you talking about is nico. this should help
n-i-c-o-c-l-u-b-.com/articles.php?id=105618. just remove the - and paste it in your web browser. it's the only way i know how to get around the censors.

I Meant to put the STAR STAR STAR STAR STAR STAR . . . .
I thought there was a website that had the STAR STAR STAR STAR BLAH BLAH . . .

SO i can conclude that . . basically the STAR STAR STAR STUFF is used to censor websites. . .

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT but now i know ! ! !
good deal now some websites and links on them make sense to me.... ji ji ji.

follow up. . . .
I fixed my LOOSE TIMING CHAIN and a ratteling noice ! !This week end I performed a good cleaning to my engine. I Seafoam 'ed it. Put 1/3 of a bottle in my oil, 1/3 intake, 1/3 gas. drove it around the block, idled it for a while. let it rest for a day, idle it some more. then i changed the oil. I took my time (all day) to drain the old oil. I ran about a quart of new oil to push down the old oil out. I took off my valve cover and poured some oil through the timing chain while pushing in and out the tensioner. You can hear it squirt oil out. At first it was hard to push in but i worked it for a while and got it moving.

I filled it up with fresh oil (synthetic blend 10-40), fresh filter, fresh spark plugs, fresh valve cover gasket, and fresh gas filter.

It ran good!

THe timing chain didn't make the noise it made before, and it was nice and tight.

I even reduced (to almost gone!) a rattleingnoice at 3000 RPM. I was guessing it was a sticky valve and now its almost gone.

I am extremely happy!
I even painted the valve cover!

It got censored because of a comment made by the ownership about Club240. Nothing serious, but we figured we would go ahead and have a little fun.
