...... am i in trouble?

Post by SimplyPV »

ok i managed to peel the head cover off and took a peek inside the head. everything seems ok BUT when i pulled spark plug wire #1 (i think thats the one closest to the front of the engine) out, it was dripping with oil.... is that expected since i threw a rod (dunno which one but suspecting its cyl #1)..... or is the head shot? and just how do i make sure that the timing belt is rotated to where its spose to be. it says it needs to be rotated untill fully.... is that what the "F" mark on the camshaft pull means? do i rotate the f until it is to the top of the camshaft???

The oil in the plug lead is most likely from the cam cover gasket leaking- nothing to worry about. Just make sure you put a new gasket in when you replace the cover.

Don't know about the other question- have you consulted the manual (I take you've downloaded that one off the inernet?)
