Standard /static Timing setting
 

G'day guys,

Just put my motor back together and fired it up today, trouble with the timing i didn't know the standard settings so I set everything to Zero, What is the factory setting for the static timing, also a few of the small air hoses under the intake manifold need re attaching where do they connect??

Thanks for your help

10* base timing

try this (and next page too) for vacuum lines.

also when you disassembled your motor, if you didnt mark your cam positioning sensor and now your having a hard time hitting 10 degrees you could be 180 out...you will know if you can only get the timing light to go to 5 or 15...it does happen, and make shure your cam timing is on

Cheers Guys
 

Thanx for your help and advice guys, that is just what I was after. I marked all the hoses and pipes with paint when I disassembled the motor, and then gave everything a good clean "Der" :nuts: then when I started to put it all back together "oops" :stupid: of course all my marking were gone, just goes to show the best laid plans can still turn to crap

10 degrees base ??
 

Hi Mrnickleye,

so when you say ten degrees base, I set my Crank to 10 then line my cams up to the mark and find a tooth ??

I set my crank to 0 and lined my cams up so I would be a tooth out on the belt !!

is that what you are saying or am I misunderstanding you :dunno:

Ps Thanxs for the link, thats champion

I thought you meant the dis/cam sensor timing (with the timing light).
When you set up the belt timing with the cams and crank, all the marks are on '0'.

Yep thats wot I thought
 

Thanx Mr nickleye thats what I thought it should be :) I found out today that Base timing is timing with the short in the diag plug all good !!!

cheers,

Will
