Nahixson Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I recently bought a '92 Loyale for cheap because it had blown head gaskets. I pulled the engine and did head gaskets, timing belts, and a few other gaskets. The timing belts are on correctly, i am getting fuel, coil tested good, and i even tried a different distributor. I am at a loss! Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsyme Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Compression? fuel, spark, timing and compression. Will it try to start with starter fluid in the airbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddy is bringing me a compression tester this evening, it will not try to start with starter fluid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nahixson Posted November 18, 2016 Author Share Posted November 18, 2016 Mass air flow plugged in? Is the rotor slipping? MAF is plugged in and clean, rotor screw is in place. Disty 180* out? I followed the procedure and it went in as it should. how would I check if I was 180 off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skishop69 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 You used the three lines on the flywheel starting at TDC #1 to set the timing belts turning the crank 1 full revolution after installing the first belt to install the second?

DaveT Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 When cranking, does the RRRrrr sound nice and even 4 count, or uneven? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nahixson Posted November 19, 2016 Author Share Posted November 19, 2016 Thanks everyone, i got it running today. I guess it just needed to blow some spoob out of the exhaust? It runs great. and Thanks to MR Loyale for coming over to lend a hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
