yeah i want it to be ready for our trip this weekend.dank wrote:mate if its all plugged in and wired properly the ecu does everything for you. I don't know who told you that you could "set" the ecu timing. Sounds like crap to me.
Check all of your earths, has it got oil:?: dumb question but thought I'd ask. i know in the keenness to get things running sometimes we overlook certain things. is the fuel pump priming? no kinks in your fuel sender and return lines?
Did you change the timing belt? are the timing marks on the intake and exhaust cam pulleys lining up with the crank pulley marks? have you got a decent battery in there? all your fuses in good nick? start with the simple things...then work into the harder thingsgood luck...i wanna see some vids of this thing!
dont even know what that meansweaves wrote:how do you bend a valve in a non-interference engine?thehanko wrote:no compression on cylinder 2. suspected bent valve
I found one reference to bending a valve in an 4age by having the shim come out of the top of the bucket (not familiar with the engine myself so make of it what you want).weaves wrote:non interference engine means an engine where the piston has groves ground into the top of them so that the valve cannot hit the top of the piston, helps prevent catastrophic implosions when you snap a timing belt.
And it was a serious question, i am unsure how you can actually bend a valve with a non interference engine.
oh and i hope you have some spare axles with you, i imagine that engine at full noise is going to break something.
weaves
Also reported is;excessive valve lift, valve reliefs not cut deeply enough into pistons, wrong pistons, not enough deck height, heads milled too much
for my money i would have said that this is more likelynot nesecerily a stuck valve but a stuck bucket. Seen it a lot on older 4age's the buckets that hold the shim adjusters get a spot that sticks, and it sticks untill it warms up and the metal expands.
