January 25, 200818 yr How does the cam chain tensioner work on the honda tl125?does the engine have to be running? Edited February 16, 200818 yr by stufrog1
January 25, 200818 yr It's either manual, in which case you need to slacken a lock nut and wind in the adjuster until it takes up the slack, then re-tighten. Or It's mechanical, which means a spring pushes the tensioner against the blade which takes up the slack. To stop the spring being force back under load, there is a simple toothed ratchet mechanism.
