240sx ka24e timing chain

i am having a hard time getting a hold of a nissan timing chain. Is there any other timing chain that will work and not stretch on me right away??. The timing chain that i just put in two weeks ago has stretched and boy what a piss off.

I seriously doubt the chain stretched. Most likely a tensioner or oil pressure problem. What's your oil pressure? How old is the oil pump? How many miles etc.

My oil prssure is arond 50psi at first and drops down to around 33psi. The engin has 270k and i am runing 10w30 oil. Wy brother told me to use 20w50 Because when the car warms up and the rpm go up it rattls. And i just put a new tenshoner in and it is not falty.

Does the oil pump have 270k? If so, there's your problem.

Thanks for the advice. So if the oil pressure reads ok. It still could have a hard time pressurizing the tenshoner. about right.
