Just tried to do the compression test but I couldn't didn't succeed to fix the tester properly , but from what I've seen I had 500/600 psi on 2 and 0/200psi on the 2 others, but I don't trust any of that to be honest... I will have to send the tester and wait to get another one

As like take time , not an easy job

Which means , I would need timing kit and long isn't it ?

Is easy enough to check the timing or would it be doing half the job as changing it ?

Yes definetly , I got the O rings , will try to fix my compression tester and do it later :)

Thanks turboman, what could make this oil coming out of the pushrod tubes ? I am starting to really think it could be the timing belt that jump a tooth ?

No one has any idea :( ? Worth checking the timing or valve stems seals ? Or could it be a cracked block that wasn't obvious when I took out the head ?

Hi everyone, So I readjusted them with the rule of 9, they were all good ... I have been picky and readjusted a tiny bit 2 of them but they were good... Still smoking... Turning the crank nut I heard some kind of psshhh noise, like depression noise coming out of the rocker is that normal ? I...

Yes, I got one that will arrive tomorrow for £4 so no question asked , I will need it anyway to do the cam belt as soon as I get enough courage to do it

no worries, I've got a digital calliper , will check it , get the socket tomorrow and do it, I will let you know tomorrow evening the result if it is not raining again. Thanks guys! EDIT: yes it is 30mm :)

Tried and failed , i dont succed to make it grip , I think I'll call it a day and go buy the good socket tomorrow, any idea what is the exact size ?

Is the crank nut the huge one ? The biggest I have got is 21mm

Great I am going now and let you know as soon as it is done, I sooooooo hope that is the problem !

great, simple, I thought I would have to open something, ok it looks like the rain is stopping , will go try that. So just to make sure , I will: remove rocker cover, crank by hand one by one , if for example number2 go down when it is the at the lowest point I will adjust number 7, etc...

haha no worries, thanks again for your help mate, yes all the caps in place but I didn't change the seals though, one thing as well, refitting it I realised that I lost one of the dowels is that a big deal ? and I couldn't torque bolts because my 13mm socket isn't long enough since there is the...

Ok , is there a quick way the turn the engine by hand ?

yes like jamesmartin said, I got that wrong. just did one after the other , then redone the 2 that I couldn't do after turning the engine on I never heard of that before, like anything else that's real mechanic for the matter lol. following the tutorial that someone posted ( can't remember who...

That's what I wanted to do when the 2 push rods where up ( which in fact if I follow well what you said is normal ) but not sure how to do it lol. Will check the manual and do that as soon as it stop raining

so i need to turn the engine on and off 8 times ? could that simply this making it smoking so much ? because I rechecked the gap (0.2mm) after turning it on and off and it was still good

I didn't put them back in order and it is always the same cylinders that doesn't change the pitch when I slacken the fuel pipe
