    The definition I'm confused about is in regard to "mechanical".

    Those are hydraulic tensioners.

    But they can be repaired and made into mechanical.

    New is New or NOS. Not sure what is confusing about that. They have never been installed on a motor. The part number 519.0R shows a mechanical chain tensioner.

    $100.00 each or best offer.

    Thanks,
    Patrick

    First is a mechanical chain tensioner. This uses an inclined plane (screw) to adjust pressure.
    Second is a hydraulic chain tensioner which uses oil as a hydraulic fluid for pressure.
    Third is a hydraulic chain tensioner in combination with a mechanical stop collar in the event of a fluid pressure loss.

    Sorry dude, wherever you got that info it's incorrect. Someone is messin with definitions.

    Reminds me of this:

    One can deny that the Taliban are terrorists and instead call them an "armed insurgency" til the cows come home but they are terrorists under the accepted, historically accurate definition.



    I wish you the best of success in selling your hydraulic tensioners.

    Sorry guys when I did a search with this PN all I was coming up with was Mechanical in the description. They looked just like the Hydraulics that everyone is selling but the new ones had a new part number. Thought I had it correct and should have dug a little deeper. Thanks again for your help. Always a great site for a lesson.

    Just trying to clean out some items I do not need any longer.

    Thanks again,
    Patrick
