Hi, I'm currently working on a dodge intrepid with the 2.7L engine. Just got done with replacing the valves and seals on both cylinder heads and I am currently reinstalling the timing chain components. It has been awhile since I disassembled the rig and removed the timing components. Right now I have new chain guides on however the lower left chain guide/ tensioner arm has a fair bit of play forwards and backwards on the bushing it pivots on. My question is am I missing some kind of spacer/ bolt that should have been used or is that how it installs? As it is now I have it bolted on with an M8 flange bolt.

Take a look at the pic I attached. Let me know if it helps. There shouldn't be play in the tensioner.
