In a tensioner for a timing chain, a spring-biased plunger for urging a shoe into sliding engagement with the chain is temporarily held in a retracted condition, prior to installation of the tensioner, by a stopper having a pin that extends through a hole in the tensioner housing and engages a groove formed in the plunger. The stopper is bent so that its handle extends away from the pin axis at an angle greater than zero but not greater than 90°. Removal of the stopper from the tensioner can be carried out by rotating the handle to avoid interference with engine components in the vicinity of the tensioner.
