Hi Derek, timing chain has to be replaced if noisy or stretched. This BB is very helpful for any kind of regular maintenance, from timing chain inspection and replacement to...bodyworks.In cold wheater a chain due for replacement usually makes noise at startup (loud rattle). Other thing to look at is blue smoke at startup and sludges issues, all topics well inspected and addressed in this BB.
