Default Xj8 4 0 petrol wb 1998 in seafront green

Hi everyone, I'm considering replacing my timing chain tensioners which I've been told should be replaced asap
i took my car to a car show last year, and was advised by every Jag owner to replace the tensioners asap before it ends in tears, my car has done 52500 miles and is a 1998
I intend to replace the tensioners so will be asking millions of questions on here so stand by your beds. Ideally I'd like a step by step guide on how to do this but I think I may be asking too much. So a step at a time I'll be in here posing my questions. Thanks
