Hi guys I have a B20 vtec and I have some problems with the car right now the vtec its not kicking I have lack of power doesn't pass from 5000 rpm and 80 miles per hour one guy told me the I may have a bend valve and my compression is on #1 189 , #2 185, #3 189, #4 210 and I'm a noob on double cam one guy told me the is timing I put the two cam and up position and the bottom pulley is on the white mark
My question is the bottom pulley needs to be on the white mark or the red mark?

 

with cams in up position, there are also 2 little indent lines on the left and right side of the cam gear, on both cams these need to line up with the top of the head, where the valve cover sits. NOT POINTING TOWARDS EACH OTHER.

 

Yeah I know those marks on each cam they need to be together like that -- but what about the button one with out taking it off needs to be on the red or the white when I put the timing light?

 

button one?

 

do you mean the crankpulley?
the white is tdc rougly,the red mark is for timing ignition.

 

what? the marks on the cam gears must match each other.

also, i would not trust the crank pulley lining up with a plastic cover. they warp over time. pull the cover and make sure the timing gear matches with the mark on the oil pump.

when doing ignition timing on a standard timing gun, you shoot for the middle of the 3 marks (not the single white one). (after you jump the service connector).
