Need help with Lifan 140cc Cam tensioner
I need a little help with cam tensioner on LiFan 140cc motor.
When I went to do an oil change last week I removed the small bolt under the motor that conceals a long spring with a piston looking piece. Apparently this is the auto cam tensioner or something.

Once the piston started to slide out a little I pushed it back up in place with the spring and capped the opening with the bolt. The large bolt I now realize is the drain plug. I'm not retarded like my AVATARD shows....LOL.

The motor is making a little knocking noise at idle and I believe it may be that tensioner? Does anyone have any info or diagrams of how that is supposed to be installed etc?

Thank you in advanced
