| Yeah, I get it. Crap. I would have thought that’s a part that should last lifetime of the engine…. Not break at 75k…. Bad luck! Britt Sent from my iPad On 28 Sep 2024, at 23:55, Clarence Romero Jr. <clyderomerof4 [at] gmail.com> wrote:

What’s a ” drive cam”? I know what a tensioner is…..I know the bearing can seize or fail but…..drive cam? Is that a part not normally changed on a belt service? Do you mean one of the entire camshafts on the drivers side can fail? Fail how? Regards Britt On 28 Sep 2024, at 11:54, Anthony Bauco <tbauco [at] gmail.com> wrote:
Does this affect the 550 as well? That can a source of failure as well on a TR Never saw that on my 512 TR But I drove mine a lot it had over 90k on the motor

Every time my ‘87 TR had it engine out belt service its OEM timing belt tensioner bearings displayed signs of lubricant leakage. Sent from my iPhone I am sorry to say there are no pictures to speak of The drivers side tensioner or drive cam failed which caused a catastrophic failure of that head It swallowed numerous valves into the intake Which caused internal damage This type of failure is well known with 550/575 engines when the drive cam fails Sometimes you get a warning most times not The car had a recent belt service with Hill bearings It had 75506 miles on it I would keep the car for parts but I am selling it I have no regrets I buy them to drive them!
