I have been having a hesitant response when at idle and I have checked most of all the possible culprits. I have been comaring my h22 cam gear position to my h23 vtec cam gear position and the H22 seems like it is off by a tooth on the timing belt. I don't know where the exact position of the cam gears should be. Anyone have pics or a diagram?

 

well with the engine at TDC, there are lil marks on the cam gears that should be pointing directly at each other on the inside, and they are on the front and back of the gear, they should line up right above the upper timing belt cover on the outside. If you can't figure it out from that I can post a pic if needed, or get ahold of a Helm's manual and theres great illustrations of it in there.

 

a pic would help but ya im in the process of getting a helms manual

 

ok gimme a few here and ill get ya set up with a pic.

 

Ok sorry if its huge, photobucket wouldnt let me resize for some reason.
