HeadGasket Questions

scaggsj · 08-10-2009, 01:38 AM

Ok I got it from alldata if as long as I mark the cam gears marks with the notches on the rear timing cover and set crank pulley to 0 degreess when I put it back it should be close to time. Hope this helps anyone else whos doing one of these I feel stupid now cause its so simple but when youve never messed with it it can seem kinda scary.

I was cleaning my fuel rail and the injectors and was wondering if there is a lube that is supposed to go on the orings of the injectors?

So far its been really smooth sailing, no problems I got the head off today and it was blown on on cyl 1 and cyl 6. small blow but enough. You definitly hear if I do run into any problems as Ill be posting whats wrong with your ride?

right now it wont idle on its own...when i start it.. it starts up. then dies unless i give it gas. it will idle on its own when i adjust the idle screw.. but when i do that.. idling starts loping. i'm gonna replace the iacv and see what happens. there seems to be a misfire.. not 100% sure though.. and i gotta replace a knock sensor (getting code 52)... im sure i have the timing dead on.
before it wouldnt drive past 3000rpm (it was in safe mode because i had a huge intake and boost leak)
