The top is a little valve almost like a check valve from memory. It regulates the oil that gets to the chain tensioner piston. If you have a really rattely chain take the regulator out and get it ultra-sonically cleaned i did this to mine and it quitened it down heaps.
Oh yea these arnt extra bolts they are on every 18-r


Interesting...
My timing chain is rattling which is why im looking at this.
Although, it seems to be more of a slackness rattle caused by excessive wear, so ill have to look at replacing the lot.

Is changing the chains enough?
Or should i also replace the sprockets?
Of course ill change the tensioners if required.

I said "extra" BTW, because they are not on the 18R-C, which i have a manual for.
