they sound very good when running on 2 cyl ea81 only 1 and 2 were working 4 was off it's rocker 2 bent pushtube only front cyl's worked, but very smooth and quiet since you did not say which engine , it could also be that # 1 / 3 timing belt is off -
received EA81 dist. drive gear on crankshaft situation: engine was running fine, letting it warm up about 10 min. just idling -- go to turn on blower, and engine dies try restarting and only get backfire :-\ after removing sparkplugs, drive it into the garage using starter -- uphill icy snow, close to garage door, had to use 4x4 and have help pushing check timing and it's not even close remove dist. shaft doesn't turn freely, must use force, not fun having to turn crankshaft to provide clearance for the gears to slip past notice aluminum bits down shaft hole drain coolant from block, remove radiator, hood latch support, crankshaft bolt, pulley, and seal gear has a flat spot atleast I have 4 spare dist. to choose from, one with matching part # received 2 from CCR matching part # dist installed, had to swap vac. advance system
