| Double roller timing chain has gone stiff | Login/Join |
| DRR Trophy |
As the title says, I noticed that my double roller timing chain is really stiff when I took it apart. I'm likely going to put a belt on it but I've never had a chain go stiff. By stiff I mean the individual roller elements do not rotate freely. Anyone seen this before? Root cause? | ||

That's a wore out chain. Links locked - vibration - harmonics. Do a belt for sure. | |||

If that was a good quality chain set, you better re-check the gear alignment when you re-assemble it.  I can't recall running across a stiff double roller set.  "Despite the high cost of living, it remains popular." Dave Cook N375 | |||

Maybe that set was accidentally packaged with someone's viagra order. | |||

Do yourself a favor save some money and get a belt, you will never regret the decision. Bob | |||

I'll have to double check my notes but as I recall it was a Cloyes set. Never seen a chain go stiff like this either. Very strange but thanks for the replies. | |||
