If you have some strange performance problems like hesitation, misfires, or perhaps even a check engine light for a cam or crank sensor, you might want to check for timing chain slack. If the cam and crank don't move smoothly, engine performance will be effected. This test can only be performed on certain engines but it can be an invaluable tool when doing performance diagnosis. It's an easy test and all you need is a way to turn the crank and the ability to observe the distributor. No fancy tools required.
