Did you need to time the motor and get cylinder 1 at top dead center before you removed the tensioner? Or are you able to remove the tensioner with the crank/motor in any position? I dont want the chain to skip a tooth off the camshaft and cause any more trouble lol
That can happen on some engine configurations. According to the service manual this engine does not require that if you remove it carefully and dont attempt to turn the engine over.

Awesome good to know. Im happy to say after replacing the cam chain tensioner with a new one it solved that pesky rattle 🙌🏽
