It seems like I was busy all day and got fark all done. At any rate I've got both motors on stands and will tear into the fg motor on the weekend. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80918-what-did-you-do-to-your-car-today/page/905/#findComment-1657081 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was mistaken a few months back when I said that it had skipped. #speedbraceftw Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80918-what-did-you-do-to-your-car-today/page/905/#findComment-1657119 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was missing at idle and huffing 1 very noticeable cylinder worth of smoke from the rocker cover. It drove the 1km home fine though without missing. I'll get it apart tomorrow and have a look.

arronm Dropping a turd Gold Donating Members 9,520 Member For: 17y 5m 18d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 11/05/18 07:01 AM Share Posted 11/05/18 07:01 AM Marks dont have to line up perfect. just be the correct number of links at spacing, BUT is the bottom mark lined up at the crank??? Also check the top of the guide for damage, they often break. This one is intact.

The guides are in good nick as they came with the low km fg motor. I just looked at it wrong the other month. Either way we'll have a look inside the motor tomorrow and see what's up.
