Listers,
I have ~10 degrees of rotation of the crank before the rotor begins to move,
clearly excessive, especially on a freshly rebuilt motor with new timing
gears, chain, tensioner, etc. The car runs strongly but tends to surge at
idle and when cruising easily explained by the 10 or so degrees of timing
change visible at idle using a timing light.
Two questions:
1) Is it possible the tensioner was not installed when the engine was
reassembled? I was out of town when the engine was reassembled and have
only the word of the gentleman who does not wish to pull the engine apart.
2) Is there an adjustable tensioner or uprated tensioner available for
the TR6 assuming the tensioner is installed correctly?
