The front cylinder ACCT tensioner is weak. Tried the trick to preload it and it still loosens and allows the cam chain to slap.

Verifed by manually tightening the ACCT while idleing, quiet for a few miles.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I installed those in May and have about 4K miles on them. I have had no problems. You can check my other posts about the install and view some pictures I posted.
