Jim:  just unbolt the sprocket on the cam and swap out the chains.  Very
straightforward.

Ok,
Since I am already down to having all the parts removed to do the timing
cover oil seal and gasket, I am thinking of just doing the chain.  I believe
it has been changed once, the gap is 8mm per the factory manual which is
less than the 10mm recommended for a change.  Tensioner still looks shiny
without much wear from chain at all.  I have bever changed the chain.  Have
the sprockets aligned at TDC marks.  How do I 1) remove the chain and 2)
install the new one.  Does a link pin get removed?  Any help would be
greatly appreciated!
