89 starting issue

[fixkick]

OK, no compression,
89 is easy if really and 89 still, it has NO FALSE MARKS in 89
just a titty. on the cam cog spoke. seen on my tbelt pages.

first is the crank snout,
1: always look the first time, at it, did you , then never again. unless crank seal lets go. did you replace the seals?
2: set the crank cog bolt to 94 fl lbs. and never worry again.

you skipped a step here, i have all steps, even those ASSUMED by others to be good. and may not be.
rule one, is the cam is timed at #4 firing, when the cam wheel is titty at 12pm that IS defacto #4 firing,

if the cam is timed, right , then the lash is ALL wrong.

always check compression on all major engine work. that way, you dont burn up valves. or worse.

did you skip step 18?
or step 40?

the 8v is done quite unlike any 16v. the 8v is done with lash fully loose to , unload the cam bias. (belt tension steps)
then the last is done last. so if all steps are done then lash is good.


or step 2 and 10 here (open belt box, see install sheet)
