Hi,
I seem to be going through sprockets for fun with my TKM.

Here goes...

1. What sort of tension should my chain be?
2. Is there a tool which checks?
3. I have a stop bolt behind the engine, should this be tightened with a spanner or by hand?
4. Should my engine mount be bolted on really tight?
5.

So far in the two weeks i;ve had it, ive destroyed a front 10T and a rear 84T - i must be doing something wrong!

Thanks in advance
Steve
