Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has had problems with the Cloyes 9-1138 timing chain set.
I bought the first set from Summit. I installed the set and had 1/4" slack. I bought a second set (same brand and part #) I got the same 1/4" slack...I was hoping for just the first set having the issue.
Both brand new sets... is this normal for this brand? If not, any suggestions?
I dont know if it matters but the crank was grind 10 under, but it was reinstalled with the right bearings. Clearances all checked out.
Thanks in advance

There is an Amazon review of someone that had the same problem.

I recently installed a Comp 2138 timing set and it fit perfect, and at about $40 it's pretty cheap.
