OK I DROPED THE CHANE I KNOW THATS THE PROBLEM WHAT I NEED TO KNOW IS HOW DO I FIX IT IS THERE A WAY TO SOME HOW COMPRESS THE chain tensioner WITH OUT HAVEING TO PULL IT ALL THE WAY APART I HAVE SOME STUFF PULLED OFF RIGHT NOW I KNOW THAT IT IS AT TOP DEAD AND I THINK THAT THE HEAD IS SET TO THAT TO BUT THE DAM CHANE WONT GO BACK ON

PLEASE HELP

 

if you did, drop the chain. then the spring tensioner maybe out of it's placed. you have to pull the front cover off to put the spring back in its place

 

How ?????????????????????????????????????DO I FIX

 

your gonna have to take it all appart.. i sudgest taking the radiator out soyou got more room to work.. the harmonic ballencer is gonna have to come out... prett much eveything in front part of the engine.. you might have to call up bleach to come help you.. this is gonna be a lot of work... did you use a wedge tool when you were taking off the chain from the cam sprocket????? without it the tensioner spring is gonna pop out...

 

take off the front timing chain cover/ water pump. but, loosen up the oil pan, so the front drops down 1/4" to get the cover off easier. Take off dizzy and oil pump too, to get the cover off....... it's a lot of work, have fun

 

Yes I Did Use The Stick The Frist Time But I Went Into The House And The Guy Helping Me Didnt And He Thought That If He Moved It A Tooth Back That It Would Start But When He Pop It Off He Didnt Put The Stick In It And Now It Wont Go Back On IAM SO PISSED RIGHT NOW

 

I DONT HAVE A TOOL TO PULL THE harmonic ballencer IAM SO FU%#@##@



TIME IS RUNNING OUT FOR ME MY ROOM MATE SOLD THIS HOUSE AND I HAVE TO MOVE MONDAY I GOT MY KEYS TO MOVE IN TO MY NEW HOUSE TODAY SO I HAVE TWO DAYS TO MAKE CAR THIS CAR HAPPEN OR IAM FU$%*

 

the blue Z can pull Mr. Red with a tow rope!

 

always comes into play.

on the harmonic balancer, try a little tap tap on a piece of wood..BE gentile

borrow a puller from someone to do it right if you can.

the tension adjuster has popped

after you finally get the front cover of...make absolutely sure you have lined up the both notch marks on the timing chain

refer to a shop manual to do it RIGHT.

BAS$%#!

 

WISH I WOULD HAVE READ THAT AT LIKE 3:00 THIS AFTER NOON


ON A BETTER NOTE IF YOU LOCK A BAR ON TO THE FRAME AND THEN HOOK IT TO THE NUT ON THE harmonic balancer, WITH THE CAM GREAR STUCK SO THAT IT WILL SPIN ... YOU CAN TURN THE KEY SO THAT THE NUT BREAKS FREE AND THEN USE A PULLER IT WILL COME RIGHT OFF I WISH I WOULD HAVE SET THE CHANE RIGHT IT STILL WONT START ........... READ {DAY OF HELL FOR MORE
