I just did my water pump about a week ago and in the process I obviously changed the timing components as well. I drove my car to work today with no problems at all in fact iv been driving it all week with out the slightest hint of a problem. I got off work and started my car to leave and I heard a LOUD knocking so I immediately shut down the engine. I went to start it again hoping that I was loosing my mind after a long days work and I heard a loud noise which im assuming was a piston creaming a valve (car never started). I pop the hood and some how my timing jumped 4-5 teeth? Just wondering a ball park idea of how much damage im looking at from jumping 4 teeth? Also why this would happen? I did everything meticulously! The timing was dead on and the the belt tension was well within specs! The auto tensioner was also within specs. Anyone have any ideas?
