Prior to the injectors I had no symptoms I attributed to the timing chain, other than a clatter from the engine area at idle, which was worse when warm. Didn't know what it was at the time, but it's gone now. Could really hear it clear when the engine cover was off.

It's like a different truck now. It's pulling so hard - I am in love with it all over again. It has never been this fast before.
After hearing that I want to get my code to kick again and take mine in. I have always heard a rattle at idle which i just thought was normal. I should take a video of my truck at idle. I am just dreading the bill $$$.
Send me a video and I can tell you for sure. It's a distinctive sound. Make sure the engine is hot, and take the engine cover off if you can.
