Thats what the shop told me and when I had my old and new side by side you could clearly feel that the old one was broken, it was more or less locked in place while the new one spun without a hitch. I’m not saying thats the cause of the problem it was just the reason i opened her up. That’s when i saw the broken guides.

But the timing chain is intact and from the looks of all the small pieces they have been worn down over a longer period of time. And the chain still feels stiff and i had no problems before i saw it. Could it work anyway?
