Timing tensioner failure results in a somewhat high-pitched chatter that
should be easily isolated as coming from behind the timing chain cover.  A
broken tensioner does not change the timing - engine runs fine like that,
but in short order the broken tensioner will start to dig a hole in the
cover.
