So I got my engine back from the machine shop and assembled it. Started it and it ran great. Forgot the throw out bearing clip so iIpulled it all back out.
While it was out I bought a new timing tensioner and oil pump gaskets (leakage)
Put it all back in and now it makes noise with the rpm. I didn't let it warm up.
I checked the timing and the head is correct dowel pins up, lines meet. But the crank pulley points to the "t" on the timing cover rather than the "tdc" mark an inch below.
I originally timed it to the oil pump marks. So is my timing off? I don't understand these letters on the cover and Really don't want to take the cover off for the 6th dang time.
