Re: Timing chain damper on 100

["Greg Lemon" <glemon@neb.rr.com>]

I am currently replacing the cam and crank sprockets at a not insiginificant 
cost on my 100 motor because it had been run some time by the DPOs and 
myself until I checked without the tensioner ring.

Even with a ring and chain now fitted the parts were worn to the point where 
a new tensioner ring would not do the job of creating enough tension.

I would think that frequent oil changes would extend the life of the ring, 
as acids and contaminents would not build up so much.
