Hi all, here's the deal.
I bought a 1995 contour 2.0 for a daily driver. When I bought it, it had a blown head gasket. A buddy and myself tore the head down, got the head checked for cracks and cleaned up, and put it back together.
Here's the catch. When installing the intake cam, it cracked(was an old crack) and broke in half. I then got a cam from the junkyard, and installed. Still wouldn't run. Took the valve cover off, and noticed that the junk yard gave me an exhaust cam instead of an intake cam. Got the right cam, put everything back together, and it still doesnt' run. I'm getting 100psi of compression, spark, and fuel.
Would the valves have hit when the wrong cam was installed? I'm thinking they would have, seeing the intake and exhaust valves were opening at the same time since I had two exhaust cams.
Any help would be appreciated. I'd dont' want to tear this head off again unless I have too. Thanks.
