Default Chain Tensioners

Hello,

I have a 2002 XJ8 made in June 2001 with about 146K miles on it now. I have read so much on the plastic tensioners used in these cars, I thought I better get moving on the issue before it is too late. I know I found a pretty good procedure for the zip tie method of replaceing the tensioners, but can't seem to find it now.

Could anyone point me to a thread with the details?

Thank you,

Googling for Jaguar Forums zip tie will return dozens but here's some from Jim the Boss
