Can anyone help on this one, the problem started when the cam tensioners
broke up, luckily it was only the front two they were easily replaced and thought I got away with the timing, however it still sounds sick, a compression checks out ok and the manifold seals are ok but a vac test says only 10 should be 22 therefore the conclusion is valve timing has jumped ? and that's my problem I can,t get a hold of the special tools to time her up, but I think I could work it out if I had the degrees after T D C when the exhaust valve cracks open and then copy the same onto the other bank, has anyone got that info, many thanks in advance.
