    Just giving him some tough love. I'm glad it's running and ready for Denver. Well, almost ready. Still needs that Muffler. BTW Forrest, the caravan I mentioned to you on Sunday, I'm trying to get everyone to meet up in Kansas City and then all of us can drive into Denver together. Hopefully...

    Oil on Spark Plug tip

    After getting this all sorted out and the car is now running again I want to come back to this. If you did indeed pull the timing covers and verify that the crank and cam sprockets were timed correctly multiple times how did you miss the fact that the crank sprocket destroyed itself and the...

    WTB: 3.0L Crankshaft Pos. Sensor...Before Carlisle Parade

    OK. He'll bring one of those too. There is a field on Cavalry Rd north east of the fairgrounds that you can pull in with the trailer. It's where everyone is parking or leaving their trailers. That would be a good spot to do it. I don't think they would like you wrenching on you car on the show...

    I dont think Dan is dealing in parts anymore. Not doing good health wise. I think he sold everything that he had to Brian. I could be mistaken about that but that is what I remember hearing. -Chad

    There is no timing procedure. Install the timing belt with the crank and cam sprockets lined up like they are supposed to be and then that's it. This isn't a small block Chevy where you need to adjust the distributor afterwards. The cam sensor and crank sensor do the timing electronically...

    Install the timing belt and release the tensioner pulley so the spring pushes the pulley against the belt. Do not tighten the nut yet. Rotate the crank by hand two full revolutions. Now tighten the nut on the pulley stud to lock the pulley in place. Were the bolts missing on the crossover...

    The only time I've seen the tensioner bolt snap was because the nut wasn't tightened down or the tensioner was set too tight on the belt. Do you remember setting the tensioner by rotating the crank twice and then tightening the nut? This looks like it will need to be welded and tapped. -Chad

    Ouch! I've seen studs snap before but I've never seen one ripped out like that. -Chad

    The section of the intake that the DIS mounts to is referred to as the crossover tube. There are two 12mm bolts that secure it to the rest of the intake. Those bolts are grounds. -Chad

    Do you have the two bolts in the crossover tube attached? These are grounds for the DIS. If so, try this, swap the two bolts in position. I did a crank sensor once and was getting a no start condition after putting it all back together. It was a bad ground at the crossover. I removed both bolts...
