So I was driving around today on break just wasting time, going maybe 60mph at around 10psi when my car pipe blew
So I was running basically a built d16a6 n/a and it felt like a dam dog, slower than before when I ran it n/a. I go back to work, think nothing of it. Come out after work and it starts up mint, I drive cross town to my girlfriends andFUCK is this car ever feeling slow, when I try and start the car up and leave her house it took about 15 tries with LOTS of gas

I managed to get it but the car would not hold itself alive, had to peddle it the whole way home just coasting in neutral and holding it up to about 2k.

Get out and pop the hood at home, everything seems mint, then I check the timing belt and my AEM adjustable cam gear and ofcourse it has gone from the 2* dvanced where I had it set last week and is now sitting on -8* retarded....

So did my timing belt jump a tooth or did my cam gear slip?

Whats the best and easiest way to prevent this from happening or to find the cause.

The motor only has about 200 miles on it.

 

Cam Gear slipped. It happens. Best cam gears that dont slip are Toda then BDL, everything under that dont hold your breath.

 

AEM True Time

What do I do to fix it easily?

just loosen the 3 bolts and turn the cam back to 2 degrees. i got jg cam gears and they never slipped on me

 

Whatdya know, the ******* bolts were like hand tight

Easy breezy swap

Went out for a test drive, air fuels richened up a whole .8-.9 and as soon as I boosted it my coolant hose popped right off the top of the rad!!

 

Another problem solved, another beer earned
