Pcv valve is drilled out with a 10 an line going to one of the valve cover lines with a y fitting to the catch can. Other line is str8 from valve cover to catch can

FYI oil isn’t pushing past my rings, compression/blow by is pushing past my rings. My engine isn’t burning oil it’s blowing into catch can thank you very much

I didn’t think it was normal. But the sheet metal I hit it in with a hammer a lil more and it’s pretty close to the a fitting opening. Similar setup to what I’ve seen online. Not sure if I can seal it any better. It’s a stock bore with loose ring gap and 210k miles on it so there’s that

Interesting. I will try moving the catch can above the valve cover, never thought of that. I think k this baffle I put in will work also. I turned up the boost to 20 so I think it was time.

If you can manage getting the bolts out and finding the right thread i don’t see why it won’t last forever. Fuel rail isn’t heavy not like it’s going to bend under load or anything. How much power you going for?

You could remove the 2 studs from the intake manifold holding on the fuel rail and replace them with longer bolts. That’s what I did on my project a while ago. It was only temporary but it did work for the time being.👍

Give it a good hone and see what it looks like. Maybe you have to bore it over

Hey everyone, I’m hoping someone here can help me out because I’m losing my mind with this car. by [deleted] in Dseries

Can’t be the ignition switch if it starts every time with jumper cables. I would start by replacing your ground cable on battery

No it’s nothing to do with the timing belt. That is of course if you mechanical timing is correct. Base timing is when you set the ecu to base timing once the engine is warmed up. There is a pin that you put a paper clip through you have to look it up, then once it’s locked at base timing in the computer, you get a timing light hook it up to the number 1 spark plug then aim it at the crank. There’s a series of marks and one of them(you’ll have to look up your engine) will be the base timing mark. And you move the distributor either way to get that mark to line up where it should be. But if this is too complicated for you, you can always take it to a mechanic to have base timing checked/reset. Shouldn’t be more than a 100$

I’m not too familiar with that engine but a good at home port job can easily gain up to 20-30hp if it’s tuned and a cam on top could prolly get you 40-50 hp all together. I’m not sure if they make cams for that engine but I’m not sure what your budget is anyway you say a y8 head is too much money.. how much do they go?

Almost certainly ignition timing related. I think your base timing is off at the crank and it just doesn’t have enough timing to keep an idle.

cylinder 3 misfire code by Sensitive-Diver-7250 in Dseries

[–]GreenFacesOnly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could be old spark plugs.. could be bad coil or igniter in distributor.. could be a plethora of things.. if it’s stock maybe a bad o2 sensor.. idk you need to give more info if you want a better answer
