yeah i found the rocker, it looks fine but i will get it checked out to be sure.

The motor has 30% leakdown on 3 and 4, thats why im pulling it down.

anyone know how to get the crank pulley off? i got the 4 bolts off, but it seems stuck on still, do i need to remove the 1/2 drive center one?

 

No you dont have to remove the 1/2 drive bolt. Just the 4. My be stuck on. If you cant get it off get a puller.

Also my guess would be he installed the cams and didnt notice the rocker was not set in properly. And once it was fired up it scored the cam lobe and then fell off.

I bet having that injector turned like that doesn't help. Unless you moved

 

??

 

so i got the head off, there is some piston damage on the crowns near the vavle recess, it looks like they have overheated and chipped off.

 

Can we see pictures of the bottom of the cylinder head. Probably can get a better idea.

Thanks
Chris

 

yep seen that before.....the lean ping.

 

 

look at the 1st one, If it ran like that im sure it can cause problems.

 

I dont think it would cause a problem at all IMO. The injector doesn't have to be perfectly aligned (so to speak) A clean injector will have a even spray pattern no matter how it is installed.

the injector is fine like that, besides thats the least of my problems

 

so i got the pistons and rods out, can anyone identify what brand rods these are? Possibly Argo?

anyone know?
