The old type of tensioner can suck oil when you do as on video For that reason gets improved with the ball valve with spring. The old type tensioner has a ball valve without the spring that can work two ways.

Hi, what is your opinion on a tensioner manufacturer? Genuine MB is made in Romania, worth $172. INA and Febi are two alternatives, both made in Germany, $70 and $90, respectively. Is there a knowledge by chance who is the OE supplier? Thanks.

of course junk tensioner! They had to engineer a way to wear out additional items such as... camshaft journals phaser lock pin and timing chain itself by lack of pressure caused by tensioner leaking any remaining pressure on the passenger side of v6/v8 engines. It's amazing how quickly parts that used to last forever turn into junk these days... too many stupid repairs help recycle recent cars early 🤗

The design of the tensioner isn't to suck oil by itself. A constant oil pressure will feed the tensioner while it's on the engine. The tensioner will not act like a pump,my friend. The other it's already charged with oil. It may be defective but that's not the way how tenisioner works. The real oil pressure pushed into tensioner it's quite high when engine is running.

I agreed thats why I created part 2 of this video. Pressure build up when I did the test submerged in oil.

I have same issue. I purchased brand new chain tensioner, preventative..... Car was worse than before. Everyone say I need new chain...... 1week later I take out new tensioner to check operation........... No hold pressure!!!!!! Now I know why clatter clatter clatter. Replaced with old tensioner. Now smoother but I think my chain is now stretched because eof driving with faulty tensioner
