If you look at the front of the engine, the wheel below the wheel that the fan is connected to. You will see a little pointer and numbers etched on the wheel.

The pointer can't get bent. It's aluminum, it would snap off, before bending.

Looks like that's what happened, then, because there is no distinguished pointer on there.

it should be on the driver side, by the harmonic balancer. It protrudes off of the timing chain cover. You should have seen it when you removed it.

It's not there.

Latest news...
Someone told us that putting platinum plugs in her may have caused her to misfire because we don't have an electronic ignition.

After resetting the timing chain, the points and changing the plugs BACK to the original, she still hesitates a little.

While acccelerating you can feel her hesitate... when you reach top speed she levels out but you can "feel" that it is not at top power.

What now? [sm=boohoo.gif][sm=headbang.gif]


please help me.....
