Default Timing chain tensioner and guide

Can the timing chain tensioner and guide be changed without pulling the motor out of the car? And also do you have to remove the timing chain to change to tensioner. Any ingo would be greatly appreciated

No, but if the tensioner is bad, so is the chain. This isn't a DIY job unless you're experienced.

Thanks. I am an experienced mechanic, but I have not done a timing chain before. I work on different kind of equipment. Again thanks for the info
