Re: Sprint Timing chain tensioner made in India

In my box of timing chain bits I have 2 different strength springs...

The oil fed one came with a much lower tension...

They both work...I suspect the oil fed one lasts a tad longer. If you've got one use it. If you havent dont worry.
The MGB also uses this tensioner...non oil fed.
