I'm in the midst of replacing my timing
chain, sprockets, tensioner and
tensioner mounting components. The
tensioner bracket attaches to the cover
using rivets however they are not pop
rivets but look like a threadless
roundhead screw.  How does one install
this type of rivet? Should I even bother
replacing the bracket - does it wear?

Will I need to use a gear puller to
remove the sprockets? Bentley indicates
tool S341 but doesn't say for which step
it is used. S341 doesn't look like a
gear puller but perhaps something to
hold the sprockets and chains when
installing on the shafts. Can I install
the assembly without this tool?
