I would like to know if I can move the crankshaft one tooth forward or backward to change the timing, without damaging the valves.
I have NOT checked compression yet, going to do that tomorrow. The timing is set at TDC. But, I think it was one tooth off of TDC when we removed the belts, so maybe I can move it one tooth safely?
I'm coming to the end of my rope with this car.
03 Stratus coupe sxt, 4G64 2.4L SOHC.
Brief History:
Replaced all the belts, crankshaft sensor, fuel pump, bypass pump relay and fuse (because I can't find the dang things), got spark, got fuel in the cylinder, nothing else has been messed with as far as I know. Still no start.
