My "timing gear cover" is leaking right below the crankshaft pulley. Seems like I would need a new gasket. Anyone done this job? The manual doesn't seem very clear about it, but it would seem I would have to remove the a/c compressor, warm-up regulator, valve covers, idle pulley assembly, and the crankshaft pulley to get this thing off. Not really looking forward to it. It started leaking after I replaced the lower crankcase (which it bolts into). Also, now that I've been trying to start my car since pulling/reinstalling the engine, it turns over, I have fuel injectors spraying, spark plugs sparking, but no starting. It seems like the engine is really flooded. Occasionally when trying to start it, I hear this huge POP sound like a gunshot! Is this a result of flooding the engine or is it something else? It happens most often when I pull up the inertia switch to turn off the fuel pump, trying to blow out the excess fuel. thanks, Matt #1604 - only VIN to have its engine removed during an oxygen sensor replacement To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
