    Lower Timing Chain Blew-up!!!!!!!

    mine too! Well Rocketeer, I surely hope the valves did not get bent from colliding with the pistons. Of course if it under warrantee you should be alright. If they actually figure out the tensiner failed and want to know a way they can stop that you can tell them you know a Dumb Polock who...
