No Start After Timing Belt Change
Let me give a little background on the problem. Soooo....
I've had this whuurrrrr sound for a while. I took a few things off and found that my timing tensioner pully was making the noise. It annoyed me to no end so i had to change it. While I was at it i figured i would change the idler pully. I changed both of them and think i offset the timing by one notch on the belt. I'm not sure of it but have my suspicions. Anywho back to the story. Well the car started and idled fine. However it was jumpy when getting up to speed and stalled out on me a few times after just starting it similar to this post http://www.automotivehelper.com/topic284806.htm . I didn't read this post till after I did a few things. First I redid the timing and made sure that the cam gear was in the correct place, shown here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/623121/P1000233.JPG and that the mark on the flywheel was in the correct place as shown here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/623121/P1000234.JPG . Now the car won't start. I made a little vid to show what everything looks like just before i put everything back together. In it I want to know if the rotor on the distributer is in the correct spot. Everything I read it should be pointed twords a certain line and it isn't. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/623121/P1000235.MOV I tried to start it and nothing happens. No attempt no nothing. I went out and got some new plugs just incase they were fouled and that didn't help either. Same problem I'm hoping someone has some answers for me. Thanks in advance. Dave |

Re: No Start After Timing Belt Change
Update:
Reset all the cam back to point at the mark on it's cover. I also made sure that the crank was pointing at the 0 on the Flywheel. Then I pulled the distributor and reset it so that the rotor was finally pointing at the making on the distributor cap (aka cylinder 1). I turned it over and nothing . After about 12-14 cranks it made a little noise like it was thinking about moving but didn't do anything. Yesterday I checked to see if there was spark and there was. Is it possible that the distributor isn't sending enough now? I'm that since the timing belt is the only thing I touched it should be the only thing that could be wrong. However If you look at the vid in my last post you will see that I have everything aligned correctly. |
