If it is loose it can jump time which will cause poor performance. If it is loose it needs to be repaired immediately.
A loose timing chain can cause the 305 h to jump time. with improper time, the engine will not start.
Timing chain noise is most commonly coming from a loose chain. The tensioner could be loose or broken or the chain could be stretched. If the chain slips or breaks before you fix it, then not only will the engine stop running but you could cause serious damage.
A loose timing chain can only be repaired by replacing the timing chain . A loose timing belt means the belt is worn out or the tensioner is worn out. Replace worn parts.
Just taking a guess........Loose chain.
A loose timing chain should be replaced.

Loose timing chain or belt.
AnswerI think this engine uses a timing chain, but I am not 100% positive. Regardless, the noise you are hearing is either a timing chain that is loose or a belt. I would suspect that the timing chain is loose. Have this looked at ASAP.It could also be the timing tensioner also.
