sand noise? post video -----
also wtf man just download the helms manual, with the dohc the timing marks should meet each other at the centre right? sounds like you need to adjust teh valves, before you start that ----, try turning it over with the wrench or something, its also helpfull if you yank the plugs and put a long screwdriver in the cylinder and then turn the engine over by hand to find tdc.
----, just call me god dammit, you got teh pm.

i will prolly pull the head later to redo this ----.. thats if i dont sell the ****** and get it over with first..
i can still win by selling the mounts for 100.. the head for 5-600 the block for 3-400 and the rolling shell for 600 on a bad day
i guess ill pick up a cometic.. lol
i fail at life.. but hey.. i got timing within a ---- hair.. and the car runs.. lol
pretty sure i dont own anything that will pick up the noise its making..
compression test coming soon.
signorelli. thanks. ill call you tomorrow.
i think im done for tonight.. got a 12 hour shift in less than 5 hours and im on no sleep.. lol
