How many miles???
Have you checked your oil pressure, maybe consider doing a engine flush to free up so oil flow.

So, there are 2 things that will show up with a timing chain, timing will bounce around which can be caused by a tired chain or just the little hydralic button that keeps the timing chain tight.
If your timing bouncing around, if not, the hydralic tensioner could be causing the problem and quite often it is because of sludge build up.
Might want to flush out the engine real good and see if that will clear up your problem.
