I'm at the final step of my timing chain/cover replacement, and need a piece of
advise.  I'm having trouble getting the cover back on.  It will not go on with
the tensioner uncompressed, but how to I compress it while I put the cover on?
My fingers seem a bit to thick, when I take my finger out, the tensioner isn't
on the chain yet.  Anybody have a trick?
