Default Where do i get the Nylon / Plastic Timing Chain Guides ????


ive gone everywhere i know of to find these things, and cant find them... its the nylon / plastic pieces that the timing chain rests on. (the one the plunger pushes into the chain should your chain stretch. anyone have any sources i might be able to get these from?

Try autozone, napa, or kragen. Look at their websites first. I have found them before.

I thought they only came as part of the timing chain kit. Let us know if you find 'em.

WOOOOT!!!!! Thank you to Blkdrgn99 for suggesting NAPA, as they can get them by themselves... they are $9.89 for the left one and $19.00 for the right one.. didnt have them in stock, but will have them in the store by 9:30 tomorrow morning...


p.s. ill get the part number for you guys when i get them for a refrence...

p.s.s. i called the dealer and they wanted $15.20 per side, and it would have taken them till thursday to get them



Monkeyracing: when i called auto zone, thats all they wanted to sell me was the entire kit for 129.99

My best advice on this would be to do everything while you are in there. A lot of time and trouble to just do half a job. The timing chain kit from Saturn includes the guides, tensioner, chain, sprockets and the new improved oil pump cover.
