I'm about to replace the timing chain tensioner for the third time in a little less than 1 1/2 weeks. The last 2 were used with about 30-50,000 miles on them. I am going top buy a new, tomorrow from honda and I currently run 15/50 mobil 1 synthetic with a k&n oil filter. If this fails a 4th time I don't know what to do. Motor it's stock except for AEM v2 intake and a stage 2 comp clutch. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

2000 ap1 61,500miles

 

i heard mobil 1 is bad for the tct

 

Had to replace mine at around 55k miles and was using Mobil 1 at the time

 

where is your proof that mobil 1 is the culprit?

Dont buy an OEM it's bound to go bad again. Buy one from Billman. It has a lifetime warranty

 

Dang I didnt even think about inlineline pro. Well now my issue is I already bought one from honda but have not.put it in in so I guess ill try to return it and get an inlinepro one. Thanks

 

15/50 Good Lawwwd

 

Why are you running a 15/50? Are you tracking this car and running boost?

Maybe the issue you're having isn't the TCT.

 

didn't even catch that. using the wrong weight oil and yet its still mobil 1's fault
