(a) Visually check the seal portion of the tensioner for oil leakage.

HINT: If there is only a very faint trace of oil on the seal on the push rod side, the tensioner is all right. If leakage is found, replace the tensioner.

(b) Hold the tensioner with both hands and push the push rod strongly as shown to check that it doesn't move. If the push rod moves, replace the

tensioner.

NOTICE: Never hold the tensioner push rod facing downward.
