Quick question,

Is it possible to remove the rear camchain tensioner to install a new gasket without having to go through the timing procedure and subsequently removing the front camchain tensioner/setting the timing?

The reason for doing this is I am experiencing a leak from the tensioner.

Thanks.
 
I've heard it being done but it's a big risk of it jumping the sprockets. I'd need to experiment with an engine to see what the safe setting would be? If you could get the cams off of the valves for both the intake and exhaust I believe you'd be ok.

Sean
