My vid I posted is only for the basics and linning up the oil pump. Thats why ones hould sping the motor around by hand to make sure this dont happen once assembled. So I cant belive its off as the motor would sping only one rev and it should lock up. But a cam off 180 is a big deal and would smash a valve ir somthing. My early KA in my 93 Hardbody has the nylon guides ,but I recently inspected it ,and it looks new with 134k. The early SOHC KA,s are a exception as they are known to eat the timing guides. Only thing here is we are a little confused as being off 180deg. Yes they will wear ,but 95 of people will not hit that 500k ,and with regular oil changes most of these timing sets should last the life of the engine. I dont know KAs but there should be a cam position mark up top soemwhere. Youll have to spin it around about 5-8 times before it lines back up.īu I just turn the motor counter clock wise a little then turn the crank slowly back to TDC then look at the cam position and the marks that you need to look at. The brite lonk on th chain are for intaial linning it up. Then make the adjustmenttimming plate in the center of its movment and it should start up. but you can always manipulated it to point where you want it. if that what it is supposed to be at TDC. datsun meet in mo valley! Help me make it!! =) Since im trying really really hard to take it to. does that matter now that im m/t? Any help would be appreciated.
#KA24DE TIMING MARKS CODE#
The biggest problem is after 30 seconds of running the header is GLOWING RED!!! I assume that's not good at all! The only led code the ecu is throwing is air intake temp sensor but my harness doesn't have the wires. And I can't let it drop past 1k rpm or it'll die. In and it was facing cylinder #1 so I figured it was close enough. But not exactly at 12 o clock it was a lil off. Then pulled the chain off the cam gear and clocked the cam at 12 o clock ( in relation to the top of the head) then I pulled the oil pump and lined up the indent with the oil hole and the backwards d was facing towards the front of the motor. 510 is almost back on the streets! =) bt im having an issue.
