CAN'T GET ENGINE STARTED (240 SX) THIS SUCKS

[vacnsewmedic]

WHAT IS THE DEAL?

I CAN'T GET IT STARTED AGAIN, EVEN THOUGH I HAD A ROUGH IDLE BEFORE, I MESSED WITH IT ALITTLE THINKING IT WAS THE TIMING(WHICH IT WAS) I CAN'T GET THIS FREAK'N CAR RUNNING TO TEST WITH TIMING LIGHT.......

WHATS THE DEAL WITH THE DOTS ON THE CAM SPROCKETS, WHEN I LINE THEM UP MY ONLY ONE OF MY EXHAUST LOBE IS THE ONLY ONE POINTING TO THE OUTSIDE

MAJOR HELP PLEASE

[vacnsewmedic]

ALSO SOMETHING IS NOT MAKING SENSE, I LINE UP MY DOTS ON THE CAM SPROCKET BUT MY INTAKE LOBE IS OFF, SHOULD I JUST A LINE THEM TO THE DOTS AND NOT WORRY ABOUT BOTH LOBES POINTING OUT

IVE SEEN PICS OF PPLS MOTORS AND WHEN MY DOTS ARE LINED UP ONLY MY EXHAUST ONE IS RIGHT

NOTHING IS SWITCHED I ASSUME, I HAVENT SWITCHED ANYTHING, IVE ONLY TAKEN ONE CAM OFF AND CHAIN. NOTHING ELSE

I JUST WANT TO GET THIS THING STARTED, PICS DONT SEEM TO BE HELPING BECAUSE MINE DOES NOT LINE UP LIKE MOST OF THEM

Well then I would say take the chain off and make it line up like it should. That should solve your timing gun issue and your idle problems.

you line one of the links up with the dot on the sprocket, and the other one up with the notch if I reccall.
