Default Tensioner mod

Yes I inserted the piece I made through the tensioner opening in the front cover. I was changing the water pump when I found the guide had slid down. I didnt want to remove the front cover, so I decided to try making something to keep it up in place. Also, I believe the chain direction is from bottom to top when operating, so really you just need to keep it from slipping down when oil pressure is at zero. The car is still running fine, very quiet. No noise on startup.
