Primary drive chain tension

Post by CFL » Tue Mar 26, 2013 3:47 pm

I have noise coming from the clutch area at all times. Especially when decelerating. I have checked the drive chain and there seems to be some play even when the tentioner is engaged. Could it be that the old chain is too far stretched? How do you test the chain for too much stretch? Any advice would be great. Many thanks, CFL
