Just changed the timing belt of my 98 Zetec 4 engine. Did the entier procedure with the proper tools. The engine did not go well at all. Got motivated did the entiere thing again timing was still perfect put the crank pin in thurned the engine slowly by hand till it touched. The flat bar a still fits like a glove. Exept for the exaust cam witch you have to help by hand for the last 2 degre's. The car still did not work well. Finaly did it with my felling the engine was in advance so i did the entiere proceedure again installed the crank pin in turned the engine again's it and then remouved the pin and turned it 4 morre degree's on the crank. Finaly the car is ok.
The question is wy? Could me engine be out of spec. Could i be douing it rong. Did this happen to other member's?.
Lost a lot of time getting it back on the road.
Thanks for any info.
