Ive changed the head and followed the work shop manual. Im getting spark and fuel but something is telling me the timing is out. it says on the manual the cam pulley arrows should be pointing to each other but someone drew a pic in another manual i have showing them pointing up a bit. the rotor arm is on the mark new phase sensor is gapped correctly the bottom pulley sensor hasnt moved and the engine ran before so i asume its ok.

I would take it to a profesional but i dont know of any in my area, closest would be sitec in dundee but thats over 100 mile from me if i could just get it to run and i would take it for a check up. any help would be much appreciated .

 

Only advice a can give is double check all wiring is connected in the right places. Am sure when a watched my timing belt being changed the arrows point to each other.

Maybe Pm Simon and see if he can help

 

cam pulleys should be pointing at each other line them up with the line of the cylinder head,so you have the rotor arm in the middle of the line?and the bottom pulley lined up to the lug after the cut out V?

 

check the blue senssor on back of head and also check the wires going to it are godd

 

yeah at the moment the arrows are in line with top of head. rotor arm is in middle of the mark and the pulley mark is all lined up.

 

mate, check those 3 basterd loom plugs at the back of the bay on the bulk head. If they are not connected right they can cause all sorts of bloody problems. Also don't mean to undermine your knowledge in any way, but just check you have the leads on the right way to the dizzy. Sounds stupid but we've all done that before.

 

Ah ok ill go to the shed now and double check all those things. Also my mistake where is sitech i thought it was dundee ? thanks
