Hi Everyone,
Been reading this forum for a few months now and find it an excellent source of information. This is my first time posting, so here goes.
We have 3 4 x 4's in the family, My Hilux, my daughters Suzuki and My wifes Pajero (against my advice!), which started rattling quiet badly on the way home yesterday. On closer inspection the timing chain adjuster seems to have lost its tension. Just wondering if anyone has had similar experience or has a workshop manual. It is a 95 Turbo Diesel Pajero.

I would not start it up again , get it checked out, cause if the chain jumps one tooth on the cog you could have a b** motor. Is the motor a 2.5 turbo? and check it has a chain driven OHC.

Thanks Bruce, Its a 2.8 turbo diesel with chain driven ohc. I have removed
the rocker cover and can see that the chain adjuster has no tension against the chain. Not sure if tensioner is spring loaded or maybe hydraulically tensioned. I think i will need to track down a workshop manual to suit.
