URGENT oil pressure stop engine
r5gtt:
You won't be able to see if the valves are bent and the head will have to come off for that.
At least engines turning over by hand and the timing lines up :smiley:
Car should still start and misfire with bent valves. possible cam chain tensioner failure is what I'm thinking. that's my opinion.
Pesky jones:
So I think this might support my theory so far, looks like inlet cam is out of whack. The cambelt links exhaust cam, and seeing as I have set tdc, the notches on the exhaust cam are vertical. Whereas the notches on the inlet cam (controlled by cam chain) are nowhere near vertical. Almsot horizontal.
rich83:
Damn.... hows that happened. Is the cam chain and tensioner in good order?
Pesky jones:
Im trying to get to the chain and tensioner now but struggling with the last bolt on the chain cover. Even if I get it out f*ck knows how ill get it back in :scared:
