Engine was pulled out for a rebuild and we decided to to get new chains while we were at it, and also new tensionors because one tensionors had a broken seal where it mates against the engine.

Anyways, my alldata print out only shows the chains with one mark on each end, but the new chains have two marks at the top, and one at the bottom. After looking over a few threads, it looks like the two marked links at the top go on each side of the cam gear timing mark, and the single marked link goes on the mark on the bottom. Can anyone confirm this?

I also just want to be real careful about installing these new tensionors so as not to break the very thin rubber seal on the back that holds the oil pressure, what is the easiest way to install the chain tensionors?
