However, enthusiasts tend to know a little better. The first questioned asked when looking for a VR car for sale is “Do you know when the chains were done?” Any VR owner knows that if the chains are not maintained and timing service done, headaches can be expected in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith no service interval to go by, you need to pay attention to the chains. The first symptom is noise in the timing system. The chains slap around because of worn tensioners and guides. The common sound is “marbles in a can.” Failed guides can cause the chains to jump, skip a tooth and potentially snap. Because the VR6 is an interference engine, a snapped chain or one that has jumped a tooth means that valves can contact the pistons and cause catastrophic engine failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe experts at ECS Tuning have assembled a kit for you to take care of this common issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis kit includes the following items:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiming Chain - Lower\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiming Chain - Single Row Upper\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiming Chain Tensioner Rail - Lower Chain\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiming Chain Guide Rail - Lower Chain\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiming Chain Tensioner Rail-Upper (Updated Style)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiming Chain Guide Rail - Upper (Updated Style)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiming Chain Tensioner - Upper Chain\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardware\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuide Pin Attaches to lower timing chain guide rail - 1 included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuide Pin Attaches to the upper chain guide rail - 1 included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt M8x50 Attaches upper guide rail to cylinder head - 1 included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt M8x26 Attaches upper guide to cylinder head - 1 included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt M6x24 Attaches lower chain tensioner - 2 included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilicone Sealant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*021109511 has been removed from this kit as it is now a discontinued part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ECS Tuning","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67802978451760,"sku":"2763491","price":286.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/7582\/4176\/files\/555555_x800_1456ea5b-d1ca-450b-9a02-aa475088bab8.jpg?v=1789661725","url":"https:\/\/es-performance.com\/fr-us\/products\/ecs-tuning-ultimate-timing-chain-kit-12","provider":"Eurosport Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
