while rotating the crank I should have rotated to the left (shortest distance). There was no piston to valve contact but definitely keep that in mind while rotating the crank.

New sub bro.. My VTC is showing signs of going bad.. Dont want to risk messing one of my valves.. QUESTION.. I want to run a 40 gear also.. Does doing this require a tune? also what are the main benefits of doing this?

@themechanic6117 3 жыл бұрын

Im not sure but i dont think it requires a tune. The benefit of this is when you're using and aggressive cam shaft there no way for the vtec to turn on past 40° so theres no piston to valve contact . if youre using stock cam shafts you dont want to pin the vtc to 40

So everything is good until I line up my crank mark to my mark on the chain....the top two are aligned, my crank is TDC, but the gold mark on the chain does not line up with the dot on the crank brocket....any ideas?

@Ruben901 2 жыл бұрын

So I just also want to add that I installed the chain with the tensioner, everything at TDC, top two marks aligned and top two chain marks over the dots, Crank pulley at TDC but chain mark not on the dot (maybe 2 tooths off) I placed the tensioner and circled the crank 1 time and both lines align with each and the crank is at TDC. So does this mean it didn't matter if the chain marks didn't match up? The only thing that matters is alignment of lines and crank at TDC?

@themechanic6117 2 жыл бұрын

Align all of the timing marks first and then install the tensioner . Once the cams are lined up on top turn the crank which ever way you have to to get it go line up with the timing marks.

Is it possible to buy a chain that has the colored links? If not you'll just have to count the links. It's normal for everything to move a little once you install the tensioner. As long as the chain stays on the correct teeth it'll be fine.

I’ve tried moving the intake sprocket counter clockwise like you did in the video and it lines up for the chain but as soon as I let go of the ratchet the sprocket springs back out of time.

I always pull out plugs when I doing a timing job . It makes adjustments much easier. Try it without the plugs and see if things line up .
