Default BROKE THE TIMING CHAIN COVER, **** IT

New intake came with all kinds of new ****.

Something about an EGR spacer, im supposed to have put 2 spacers under the thermostat housing, theres a drain plug that is supposed to be plugging a hole by the thermostat housing, no idea if i got everything hooked back up right..

so, when my gf gets over with some distilled water and I fill'er up with coolant *car, not gf* i suppoe i'll see if i just wasted 200 dollars and about 4-5 hours of my own time

i have a feeling this was a big waste of my time, and if i did anything, it was just worsen a problem that was already there

update to come in a few

how did you break the timing chain cover? did you over torque one of the bolts and have it just split? But seriously, just relax. I know where you are coming from, my engine is ****ed up pretty bad.

easiest mother f-ing part of the reassembly should be putting the belt back together

i was pissed it was taking so long

belt was not going the way it should

apparently, i went ON TOP of the tensioner, instead of under it, snapped that ****** focker off when i started it..

talk about some retarded *** ****** focking ****

so, i spent 5 hours trying to replace my intake manifold *which was not even cracked to begin with* and i figure out a way to accumulate 20 hours *my time* worth of labor to fix this ****** focking piece of crap-sh9it car...

this time, i might honestly get it running, and sell the ****** focker.

im tired of everything

and i love my car EVERY moment I'm driving her, im just tired of all the **** it takes to drive her

*im pissed/sad/angry/discouraged all at one time*

i've got a broke *** motor with a pulley and a sharp *** piece of timing chain cover connected to it if anyone wants to buy the piece of **** as a package*
