My Mitsubishi MF Triton 1988 model is just about to hit 200,000 kms, its currently on 195,000 kms
i bought it second hand nearly a year ago
when should i replace the timing chain, do you reckon it would have been replaced before ? , any way to tell?
I currently have the inlet manifold off, should i do it now while im already performing repairs on it
and eventually a tappet has to be replaced, probably replace them all....
is that hard to do ?
Timing Chain, when should i change it ?
Do it when you have to replace the tappet as the rocker cover needs to come off. they dont often get replaced unless they are getting noisy or the front cover is leaking oil. They can be a big job, ie sump dropped. tappets can be easy to replace depending on the model of engine.
Timing Chain, when should i change it ?
you may as while replace it since the manifold is already off, replace the gears also. it should come in a kit.
