[QUOTE="OLD CT, post: 175109, member: 464"] It's actually best to pull the left side round cam cover to check the timing chain tension, You also have to remove the plug on the bottom of the engine on a 79, right next to the oil drain plug. A little oil will drip out and then stop. The adjuster is under the plunger plug I am trying to describe. The side has the locker for the tensioner. Once you have the locknut/side screw loose you turn the adjuster ''on the bottom'' in slowly clockwise to tighten it. Then tighten the side screw/lock nut on the side back up. It can be adjusted while the engine is running too, you keep the cam cover on for that one though! lol. [/QUOTE]
