The Story
Cloyes Timing Chain Tensioner 9-5947
Cloyes 9-5947 is an engine timing chain tensioner built for applications that require stable chain control and consistent valve timing. It is a direct-fit style replacement for a range of GM vehicles, including Chevrolet Colorado, Camaro, Malibu, and GMC Canyon applications.
Key Features
- Hydraulic and spring tensioner design for timing chain control
- Metal housing and metal construction in a gray finish
- Activation pin style
- Two mounting holes with 0.411 in. (10.4394 mm) diameter
- No adjustable mechanism
- No gasket, seal, bolts, or hardware included
- Interchanges with 95947, 12627109, and 12627110
Product Details
This Cloyes timing chain tensioner is engineered to maintain proper chain tension in the engine’s valve train system. Cloyes uses CAD-based design and advanced materials, and each tensioner is tested for function and durability before release. The 9-5947 is listed for a wide range of GM vehicles, including 2015-2020 Chevrolet Colorado, 2016-2020 Chevrolet Camaro, 2013-2020 Chevrolet Malibu, 2015-2020 GMC Canyon, and 2018-2020 GMC Terrain. It also applies to select Buick, Cadillac, and Chevrolet models across the 2013-2022 model years.
Cloyes recommends replacing the chain tensioner, sprockets, and guides together when servicing the timing chain. This part number, 9-5947, is a practical OE-style replacement for timing chain service on GM 2.0L and related applications where precise chain tension is required.
What It Helps Address
- Timing chain slack
- Chain noise from worn tension control
- Valve timing instability
- Wear in related timing components
- Service replacement for a failed hydraulic or spring tensioner
Installation Notes
Install with the engine timing system properly indexed and follow the vehicle-specific service procedure. Because this tensioner uses an activation pin, confirm the pin is handled according to the service manual during installation. For timing chain repairs, inspect the guides and sprockets at the same time and replace them as needed. Verify exact vehicle application before ordering, since fitment varies by year, make, and model.
Quality Assurance
Cloyes states that its timing chain tensioners meet or exceed OEM performance requirements. The 9-5947 is CAD designed, manufactured with advanced materials, and tested for function and durability to support consistent engine timing performance.
