Even MORE timing belt trivia!

Broken cam IIRC

IIRC he started a new thread with the answer to this one. One of the rear cams had sheared itself at one of the cam journals, (the intake cam I think). So, only half of the camshaft was turning, and as a result of the camshaft being broken was that it was not turning the exhaust cam at all. So, obviously the motor wouldn't run. This was attributed to the orignial 0 mile 3.2 sitting for an extended amount of time I think.

They replaced the cam, retimed everything and it fired right up.

Posts like this make me realize how fast the time has flown for me on this forum and how much knowledge I have retained about it.

Strangely enough I remember this thread as if it were yesterday.... I guess I am learning something in college...
