Timing is probably off. Set number 1 piston at TDC and check the timing marks. If applicable, also remove cap from distributer and check position of rotor, it may need adjusting for correct timing.
Run a compression test. If compression in all cylinders is low, it's probably the timing chain.
Symptoms of a worn timing chain are some or all of these:Rough idle.Backfiring, bucking, or sputtering.A rattling noise from the chain.Engine may not start.
To me, it sounds like a timing belt (chain) needs replaced but are you sure there is no spark? If it just quit on you w/out notice, tunrs over but will not start-you likely have to replace the timing belt. Same thing happened to me- Toyato Tacoma w/about 162k miles on it.
Check the ignition coil on the Cheyenne. If it is ok, check the timing. The timing chain could have slipped or broken causing the engine to not start.
did you make sure the #1 piston was top dead center and that when you set your timing that the springs where without tension? if not its out of time
you will replace the timing chain when mornig cold start becomes noisy Normally it will last the life of the engine, and is replaced when the engine is overhauled.
According to Honda's website the standard Civic models did not start using a timing chain until 2006 with the exception of the SI models which were a different engine and have always had a timing chain. But PRIOR to 2006 all the other civic models had timing belts (which have to be replaced to be replaced periodically).
The timing "chain"will start rattling at around the 100k to 110k mark. This is when it should be replaced
It is not timed correctly.
check timing chain/belt to see if it is broken
You always start counting from the timing belt/chain. Cylinder 4 is the one closest to the windshield on a SLK 230.
No.
Sounds like the timing chain adjuster is worn out. It is actuated by oil pressure. Was it replaced with the timing chain?
No, but not all engines use a timing chain, some have belts and some use gears.
do you have fire at the plug? if not the cap has coil in it and needs replaced
A loose timing chain can cause the 305 h to jump time. with improper time, the engine will not start.
Well, if it ran smooth for the 20 seconds then timing has nothing to do with it. Sounds like a fuel shortage. Have the pump checked, and also the filter.
