 Hello All! RN> Calling all timing experts! RN> A neighbor of mine has a 2002 (I think) Chevy with a V-6 engine and he RN> was telling me a few days ago that they did some internal work on the RN> engine and when they put it back in time, the #6 cylinder had to be at RN> TDC or else it wouldn't start. In my old days of fooling with engines, RN> prior to the V-6, that would not have worked, so I think they had the RN> distributor 180 degrees out (or off, depending on how others phrase RN> this). Finally, I thought the conputer would take over this setting? RN> Anyone who wants to contradict my opinion(s), feel free. (-: I looked through all the specs that I have available and did not find any GM V6 engines that time off the #6 plug. I agree that the distributer must have been installed improperly. If it is a distributerless engine the camshaft could have been timed 180 degrees out. later --- D'Bridge 3.82 * Origin: Bill's Bar n' Grill (1:3634/15) |
