So after i took it apart a little bit ago I finally had everything perfect the lady was running GREAT! Then i get in my car and my timing chain starts hitting after 2 weeks of me driving it. So I take the valve cover off and everything seems in order. Chain is tight also. WTF!!!! What would you guys replace it has 220,000 miles. Or do you guys think i should just move it to position 2?

 

Timing chain is hitting what?
Both sides are TIGHT?
Pics?
Video?

 

Its hitting something. Probably the guide on the right. It sounds kinda like marbles in the intake manifold and stops around 3rd gear. I'm wondering what should I look for? I'll try to get some pics and a video.

 

if it sounds like marbles.... maybe, just maybe its your water pump going out...

 

Just replaced the pump. I took a vid and it wont let me upload. Well when its at tdc its tight but when its not the right side is as loose at a hooker. Is this normal?

 

you can upload the video to youtube or photobucket and share the link..
