[TR] TR3B timing chain slack

[Wbeech]

mm+Millimeter, about 1 inch, so more than double your noted amount.  Guess
I'll buy a new chain.
 
TRF lists three different qualities of timing chains:

1. AE brand $19.95

2. Replica $9.95

3. Renold $48.93

Or, Moss just lists one at $9.95

Just for the weekend driver, does anyone have any expereince with these? 

 

Thnaks,

Bill

Bill -
 
I know this is in the manual somewhere -- but couldn't find it just now.
 
But my notes from the last time I did this say "per manual, slack of < 0.4"
is acceptable".
 
What's a mm?

What is an acceptable amount of slack in the TR3B (TCF) timing chain?  With
all the slack on the tensioner side I can measure 25mm of play.  Is this OK?
Thanks,
