The lack
of chain tension could also cause the chain to fall off and jam in the drive train.
My friend already ordered a
manual chain tensioner to see if it helps, so I will come back and update the thread if something changes.
The chain features an inertia safety brake with manual backup, an automatic and adjustable lubrication system, and

HI Charles I got the your answer TKS but the other thing im trying to find out what is the def between the old and the new

The restoration included new injectors, rebuilt injector pump (by Pacific),
hydraulic chain tensioners, new cadmium plating as needed, new SSI stainless steel heat exchangers, new muffler, powder coated cylinder baffles, new oil tank, the case was align bored, Dilavar rods, new plugs and high voltage wires were installed, and the engine was dyno tested (test results included in documentation) before installation.
And the chain camshaft drive, a high - durability, low - maintenance feature of all current BMW engines, has an
aluminum chain tensioner that also saves weight.
The concept allows the drive train, which was previously firmly attached to the main frame, to float freely, eliminating the need for the

Clutch, timing
chain tensioners, radiator, recurrent oil leaks (still unresolved), trunk that wouldn't close then wouldn't open, rear door that wouldn't open (twice), brake hardware, minor suspension, heater core blockage, undiagnosable rough idle and hesitation, I'm sure I'm forgetting a few.
Especially with the VW Tiguan timing upper timing
chain tensioner.
The car wears a PCV oil separator, fresh fuel injectors, updated timing
chain tensioner, spark plugs, new thermostat, A / C compressor, power steering hoses, and a clean valve cover gasket.
Quick update, the manual timing
chain tensioner should be coming in on Monday so we will be installing it Monday night and checking again.
That cutaway doesn't show
the chain tensioner.
After a full race weekend and a full track day the bike is great and no further weird noises where found, so it was definitely
the chain tensioner.
