Yep, I knew I had the name wrong!

No more leaks

Ah, I see. If that's what it is, great. But the leak looks to be coming from the passenger side. And whatever it is, it sprays directly onto the belt. Anywho, let's not hijack the thread.

I purchased everything listed in the OP and installed it all this past weekend. Car runs great now and no more rattle at start up. Thanks Zack!

Tasca looks to have all of the OEM Ford parts (all for tensioner arms) in stock right now. And interestingly enough, cam covers, too.

Not bad. My buddy just replaced his on his 05 Mustang. Think he spent close to $500

A shop quoted me $2200 to do this on my aviator. I told them for that price, I'd just buy a remanufactured engine.

Thread I started a couple years ago talking about the metal tensioners.
http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forum...ad.php?t=92299
Pictures from when I had mine replaced, new metal tensioners and guides.
NOTICE the Passenger side guide has ZERO nylon material on it. The chain actually grooved the metal of the guide.

How many miles are people seeing before these parts need replacing? I'm at 205K.
Senior Member
I changed mine at 117k, I started hearing start up noises around 105k. I believe they were all original parts inside.
