[doohopark]

ok i took the old ones out put the new ones in, lined up all the marks. went to crank and no fire, so i take it apart look at the chain and the damn thing skiped like 4 tooth, the chains tight. my question is, are the sprockets the same for both intake and exhaust?? and when i took it apart befor every thing it looked like the mark was off by one tooth. um how far from the yellow link is the mark on the intake side?? the mark i made wore off during the process and i cant really tell where it goes. some help. i have till wedsday to get this thing fixed. ok to make sure the one with the green is the exhaust right??

Ouch! You're sure the chain jumped 4 teeth? Or was it mistimed from the start. Not to rub it in, but you should always turn the crank by hand 2 full turns after playing with the valvetrain and before starting the car. You'll know if you have an interference without busting anything.

um ya i did turn it 3 fulll times, but with a very big ratchet, the kind you use on semi trucks, lesson learnd dont use 3 foot ratchets to turn the engine, ad yes this really sucks
