Hi Guys,
I am almost ready to install my s50 into my e30 m3, but I have one question. While I was taking the cylinder head off the s50 I noticed what lookis to be a tensioner on the exhaust side of the cylinder head at the front of the motor. When we were checking the compression of the motor I noticed this tensioner/sensor making a tapping noise? could this be the infamous lifter tick associated with these motors? And should it be replaced while I have the motor out of the car or is this noise normal???
Thanks,
Ryan
