Did you forget to let one of the tensioners out? In otherwords, take the hairpin out that holds them in compressed condition?

No I triple checked everything was right and pulled the pin on the tensioner. Everything worked fine for over two months. The problem just started a day or so ago.

Hard to say, but it sounds like chain slop. Ultimately, I think you are taking it apart. No point guessing.

Yea all new chain guides as well. My guess is the new tensioner is bad because the noise goes away after 1k rpm when its building more oil pressure in turn pushing the tensioner out on the guide. But you are right it has to come apart again. Think im taking it to a shop this time because i dont have the time to do it sadly.
