Gloyale Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 ** There is a kinda of rattling arround the 3.000 rpm mark, under load, like a tinggling, or bell-like sound.(maybe valve rattling) This is "pinging" under load. textbook. Accompanied by overheating. This means your timing is too far advanced. Not a water pump issue. This is the problem right here in the first post of the thread 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jugizmo Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 Ok, havent looked at the last post from Gloyale, gonna try to retard the timming tomorrow first time in the morning For now we have another "houston" problem. The fu#%kr now started to drip Oil from passenger side valve cover bottom screw ( picture attached) . Tried tighten it by hand and it just kept turning, took it out and it came out with the aluminum thread on the bolt....almost shat myself right there at the autoplanet parking lot. There is 2 stripped thread on the passenger side, one tottally loose and dripping Oil Like nuts, the other one still getting some torq, barely. Any band aid fix you guys have? Cold weld? High temp silicone? Longer/wider bolt? Tried with a slimer washer, no luck! Im about to loose it with this specimen but it's hard also not to love it...I mean, it's dripping Oil and pressure on it's ribs and the thing still gets me to the market and back every single time! I guess im Am looking at yet another motor pull to get that side cam restripped or changed....also rear dif gasket decides to went puff on me splashing Oil all over the rear ..awesome! ???? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subnz Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) Or use a timing light. It's this nifty tool they make for actually doing this job correctly!! Correct - this another way ie a driving test to check if the timing is correct - AFTER using a timing light to set timing. Previous post Driving test for assessing correct ignition timing. Full throttle from 2000rpm in 3rd gear - sluggish acceleration and possible backfiring if bad - ignition timing retarded - slight detonation (pinging) on initial full acceleration - timing correct. - heavy detonation (pinging / knocking) - timing too advanced or low octane fuel.

DaveT Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Thread repair kit. Solid ones are better, helicoil work just have to be a little more careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Also, those bolts stop when the shoulder huts the head, so don't over tighten them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
