2. If it is out of the standard value, replace the auto tensioner.
3. Use a press or vice to gently compress the auto tensioner
push rod until pin hole A of the push rod and pin hole

Caution
If the compression speed is too fast, the rod may
become damaged, so be sure to carry out this
operation slowly.

NOTE
When replacing the auto tensioner with a new part, the
pin will be in the auto tensioner.
