Hi chaps,

Request on behalf of my father in law, he's after a timing chain tensioner for his 1.75L E-series Marina. Does anyone know of a supplier who'd be able to supply this part? Also would I be correct in assuming that the tensioner for the 1.75L would be the same as the 2.2L one used in the crabs/wedge?

Cheers,

Andrew

Hi Andrew!

Not bought a Princess yet?

Have you asked Tony Wood (LOCI) as I would think he has parts for the Austin/Morris 2200/W6 and from memory the 2200 was a Maxi x1.5 block and the 1.7L E series was a stroked version of the 1.5L - I imagine the engine in the Marina was basically the same in the same way many of the crab and MGB engine parts are interchangeable.
