timing

[busa_4]

if you have a crankshaft position sensor and a camshaft position sensor there will be no timing adjustment at all. the ecm does all the timing adjustments. if you cant find that connector, see if you have these sensors on the engine and that will solve your problem.

it is supposed to warm up around here mid week so I will try to find the wire then. Thanks for all the help and I will let you know how things go.

Sector95, thanks for the help you were dead on. The wire was right where you said it would be, which is good because if I didn't find it I would not be able to replace my intake manifold gasket. Now that I am into it though I am wishing I had not found that wire, then I couldn't have started this long and painstaking process.

Outstanding! It's a little "whoopee" kind of celebration that only someone who works on their cars can appreciate. I'm glad I could help.

Looks like now you're gonna have to complete the hand at task.....


Happy New Year!

Yeah, pray for me. The intake manifold is no 4 hour job, thats for sure. I just hope nothing gets f-ed up along the way. Have a good new year man.

Well, intake manifold is all done and she is back on the road. I am getting almost 21 Hg of vacuum at idle now so I can't complain (also means my rings are doing well). Thanks for the help with the timing wire, I just hope I won't need it for a while now.

...yeah but think how easy it'll be to find "next time" ;-)
