Worn chain,60.00 ebay but bit of a strip down to fit,would see if there,s a code logged timing related.

You swapped the CAS and now it's worse?
suggests something to me!
Anywho,having had spate of these in the past year,all with faulty AFM.though no codes usually,
disconnect the AFM and see if it starts better?
