Chain tensioner cleaning?
Has anyone tried taking out the external chain tensioners and cleaning them as a remedy for the start up rattle that is common in Boxsters?
If I try cleaning the tensioners, do I have to lock the cams, or can I just lock the motor at TDC and remove, clean and reinstall the tensioners one at a time?
