KA timing chain kit

i'm doing the revised timing chain kit on my 95 240SX. It would be greatly appreciated if somebody has a very quick drawing of the chain guides that i take out and leave out. I know which ones they are but i cannot draw it off the top of my head. Thank you very much for anybody who can help me out.

Re: KA timing chain kit

The upper timing chain guide is the one you can toss... As a matter of fact, I don't believe anyone even sells the kit with them included anymore if I'm not mistaken.

Both upper timing chain guides may have been nerfed, I just pulled out my lower upper timing chain guide. THe upper chain has two guides and one tensioner. The chain itself is in more or less an upside down triangle shape with the tensioner on the left, a guide on the right, and a guide on top. Top guide goes for sure, right guide can go as well (but hell, if you have it, go ahead and replace it).

As far as guides and tensioners:

Upper timing chain tensioner
Lower timing chain tensioner
Lower timing chain guide (tension side)
Lower timing chain guide (slack side)

Plus the chains and any other stuff you are going to replace :P
