Recently I had to pull my head because of leaking valve stem seals causing me to burn oil and since I’m running a fully exposed timing belt I was wondering if it’s at all possible to have a non interference set up If I use a thick enough head gasket and how thick do I need to go.The oem cams...

so im doing my timing and the pulleys one sticks out more than the other. my question does the idler need a spacer? because the tensioner one sticks out a bit furtther. 7bolt 2g dsm

I need a second opinion. On the road the other day my car sputtered out after a pop and wouldn’t turn over. Threw a P0335 code. I checked the crankshaft sensor and it was thrashed so I replaced it and hoped for the best. Still wouldn’t turn over, but every couple attempts it would make a...

Im currently rebuilding my 420a motor from the bottom up (I have to replace main bearings and possibly resurface the crank) Im about to pull the timing belt off but there's 2 problems 1- i cant get the stupid timing cover off without breaking it and 2 - I really just need tips for timing the...

Hey guys, so I figured out timing is off on my car (this explains my low vacuum at idle) so I set the crank at TDC and the cam gears are about a tooth off (see pic below). Just wondering what would be the easiest possible way to correct this. I’ve been told that I need to pull belt and redo...

well this was a diff thread but now. question is i went to set idle ground in ecm link went to adjust biss. i ended up blowing a fuse? fuel pump wont prime anymore. floor lights wont turn on anymore. dash lights up gauges do. radio does. no crank nothing when key is turned forward. i got 2...

I have been noticing knock when driving around and sometime enough to pass the 5 degree threshold that flashes the MIL at you.Im just wondering in the log I have attached if this is something to worry about? I notice that most of the knock occurs during low RPM tip in. However, I'm not 100%...

I'm looking to get my timing done and get a new water pump installed because I have no idea when it was last done, the previous owner said the guy before him did it but doesn't know the mileage or have any form of proof. I called the shop I normally go to and they said it would be 900$ for just...

https://youtube.com/shorts/JNDUSfx0RP4?feature=shareHere is a link to the noise in question.The car: 1995 Talon M/T with BSE and evo3 16g.The engine was just rebuilt, makes great oil pressure and has great compression. It didn't do this before the rebuild. Note that the P/S pump, Water...

I noticed that my belt was loose when checking oil and coolant levels the day after replacing my water pump. I had to drive the car for an emergency and checked it when I arrived but it was tight again. Makes me wonder if oil pressure is involved.

Hoping to make sure I'm looking in the right places to diagnose this issue, any suggestions appreciated.Issue: At warm idle the motor almost feels like it is stumbling. From the engine bay it sounds ok (no loud noises or vibrations), but the vibration in the cabin feels really rough. Even with...

Ok so I have all of my timing marks aligned correctly. I am trying to install the belt but it does not have enough slack, I have the tensioner pulley completely lose and the grenade pin still inserted in the auto tensioner. I followed the vfaq for correct routing and that does not work. All my...

When installing the timing belt with the Kiggly racing tone wheel and AEM cam gears I have lined up the marks on the cam gears and held them in place with the STM cam gear holder. I have lined up the mark on the tone wheel (crank gear/kiggly tone wheel) as accurately as possible (the balance...

Hey guys, I've got a pretty serious oil leak on the timing side of my engine. It looks like the previous owner of my car got rid of the balance shaft and did not plug the hole in the side of the block where the tension pull and the sprocket for the balance shaft were. I'm going to guess that's...

So my car is supposed to go to the dyno next week but all of a sudden it begins to have starting/idle issues, which is nothing new really. I've had to deal with idle surge plenty of times but there are a few other things going on that make me want to ask some questions even if they seem dumb...

Car runs fine under load, and even when you start it for the first 5 or so seconds when idle is high, When idle settles at around 850 you can really feel the engine vibrations and misfire. The Galant is running and driving but the vibration is extremely worrying, at stop and go traffic the idle...

Ok, so after searching around, I found out how to tune for pops, the one thing that confused me was people said to do -5 timing at low load, so I changed 33 to 28, that didn't do anything haha, but when I figured it out, I retarded it to -2 in the lowest load (0.3 I believe) and turned idle...

I did a head gasket replacement on my 1994 Mitsubishi Eclipse 1.8L. Now let me start off by saying the head gasket was not blown but had an external leak at the oil jacket by cylinder #4. This was creating a river of oil down the side of the block and onto the bell housing of the tranny. Since...

Long story short, my friend was cleaning oil off of my valve cover while the car was running and the paper towel got sucked into the timing belt. We turned the car off ASAP, got as much towel out as we could and the idle sounded off so I turned the crank until all the timing marks lined up and...

so my balance shaft sprocket doesnt want to spin freely by hand but it will turn fairly easy when I rotate it with a wrench, my question is what should I do next to fix the problem, and is it indeed a problem? (95 Eagle Talon TSI 7 Bolt)

Hello!I recently purchased a 1990 Eagle Talon TSI with a G4CS block and a 4G63 head. I am about to change the timing belt, idler pully, tensioner, and water pump because I am unsure of the last time this has been accomplished. I have searched the forums for anything that may differ in the...

So my 95 Talon TSi is gonna be getting some lifters from extreme psi the revised ones. Last time I did those to my eclipse I did the timing belt at the same time because I’m pretty sure that’s common to do that at the same time right? My question is should I just replace the belt or should I get...

alrighty guys, I'm trying to set the timing on my 2g and am running into a bit of a snag. The previous owner stuck these aftermarket cam gears on and they dont have the timing marks on them like the stock ones would which means im not sure how to set the timing. is there anyway i can tell by...
