The 4-6 cyl. chain tensioner is on the top side of the head. In the picture below it's next to the cam position sensor. It's under the A/C compressor.
Let the lifters "cook" for a good 8 hours at about 250 degrees. Press down on the plunger to purge the old oil, you will see dirty oil squirt out, keep pumping until no more dirty comes out & the plunger gets too hard to compress again. You might need to add a quart of Marvel Mystery oil to the pot.
