Deceleration rattle



Hello All,
Flash seems to be developing a rattle, barely noticeable at first, but I
think getting progressively worse.
The ONLY time it occurs is when decelerating using the engine as brake.
I had the mechanic check it out,
he said it sounded normal to him, but that was a couple of weeks ago. My
concern is that the cam chain
may be losing its proper tension, ie the tensioner isn't working. Anyone
have any experience along these 
lines. Flash is going in for a warranty claim as soon as they get the
parts, so I'll have them check again.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
