As title really,
I've had the usual rattle although my fzs is only 25k miles. Its not needed urgently so have just randomly decided to see if I can fix the rattle.
I don't know if my tensioner is knackered or what here:
I obviously get that it presses against cam chain to take up slack, but when I took mine out it was fully extended and if I squeeze it shut it springs back open on its own and the little tooth thing lets it. But it stops it going backwards - is that right yeh?
Do I just screw it back in and that's it reset? Anything I need to do with it to 'reset' it?
At 25k im thinking its unlikely to be an issue with the chain itself right?
