Hello all!
I seem to be the local entertainment for this forum lately and I hope I don’t become too much of a bother to everyone.
I did get my starter issue resolved. I had to include a small spacer to get the gear to unstick from the flywheel.
I did get a very rough first start and sounded like death. I also noticed a bad front main seal which I am replacing today. I’m doing so I looked on the backside of the timing cover to see this. (See pic) I think my timing chain is loose and hitting the cover. The marks line up and are deep. There is nothing pushing the cover inward, so this is my only logical conclusions. What do you think? There is play in the chain, but how much is too much?
