Default Where Exactly is the Timing Chain Tensioner

So I just read another thread about a chain tensioner going bad a 6k miles, and his makes alot of noise at idle. Well mine does the exact same thing so I was wondering where does it exactly sit and what do I have to take off in order to get to that thing? Thanks!!!

It's right beneath the vtec solenoid.

Search for pictures and it's in the sticky.

Far left side of the pic is the TCT, held in by two bolts. The TCT itself also has a cap that has it's own two bolts.

You can see through the maintenence hole, and see the small pull-pin.

I've put the timing chain guide on the outside for the pic, so you can see what the TCT pushes against inside the engine.
