[DML] Timing Gear Cover Leaking...Backfiring?





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
