Check the regulator for wear, damage and oil leaks.
Measure the length of the protruding part of the pushrod (dimension L). The required value is 12 mm. If the measured value does not correspond to the required value, replace the regulator.
Press the pusher with a force of 100-200 N and measure the pusher protrusion. The required value is 1 mm. If the measured value does not exceed the specified value, replace the tensioner adjuster.
When installing the regulator, do not forget to align the holes of the pusher (A) and the body (B) and insert a wire with a diameter of 1.4 mm.
