so we got this car from this russian ( i know first mistake) but he said that the timing was off about 2 notches, but i was just wondering the timing marks on this motor cuz its a f22a4 with a h23 head, so i know that the two camshaft marks have to be tdc, but wat other marks would i have to line up? the crankshaft? let me know cuz i tried and the marks on the crankshaft pulley were pointing down, while i found everything else was lined up, the car seemed like it wanted to start but just wouldnt completely fire over, i need help!

 

send that **** back..

 

There is usually a timing mark on the accessory pulley on F series engines. If not, pull out a spark plug and drop a long extension down the hole to find TDC.

 

so dont buy cars from russians?

i kinda had the same problem with my car but after the compression test i found that my motor was blown. so you might want to get that done if nothing else fixed that issue.

ps...the only russians you cant trust well are the russian jews like my manager.

i expect matt to chime in at some point with a comment on the jew portion by possibly throwing some money at them or something to escape.
