what Id do with your car, (pig in a poke sack car)
sure put back the head. (tiny orifice not clogged ) before landing the head, (I use headless head bolts x2 to land head no damage, or use 2 persons,) no missing head guide pins allowed.
1: make sure the cam belt is new and set right. timed.
2: make sure the front crank key is not wrecked as many are and if ok set the 17mm large bolt to 94ft./lbs. per the TSB sheet on car. (so it will not fail later)
3: torque head to spec. staged as chapter 6A instructs.
4: good fresh engine oil, prime the filter first. with oil filled to full and screw it on., fast.
5: crank engine VC valve cover off, no fuel, FI fuse pulled, see top end oiling (VC = valve cover)
6: do a compression test first, before starting engine, 185psi is normal tested sparks out, and at over 1/2 to full wide open throttle ,just block the throttle open at TB.
7: if compression is ok, and top end oils, ok,
8: set spark timing, next a timing light works even with the FI fuse pulled and can set spark timing with a light. sure can. on engine with no fuel flowing. for getting it close.
9: now put in the FI fuse and key on 3 times, to prime the fuel rail and then start the engine. (all engine coolant in place do not run engine lacking spec 50% antifreeze coolant in the loop)
make sure the engine has new thermostat. 180 to 195f all work great. (life span is 7 years on stats says president of STANT in a youtube video)
100PSI is no good. ever
my lawn mower does 100. (100 is totally wrong) most folks doing this, forget rule 1, WOT, the engine must be WOT, or intake manifold off, to get fresh air to the engine.
or not letting the gauge needle peak, it will peak and must peak or you did it wrong.
or dead or near dead battery, so charge the battery first or use jumper cables to a good cars battery to gain full starter motor power, (100amps) it takes only 100 amps to crank over any g16 engine, less with sparks out. way way less.
that is why we take the sparks out to reduce stress on the starter and the poor battery . and to get the peak faster. (saves time)
