Okay so I just replaced my head gasket and put on a new timing belt and timed my car. I need to get new hosing for a coolent line and adjust the throttle body and then she will be done. How does everything else look?

I realize the pic is small had to take it on my phone as I did not know how else to tranfer the picture.

You would get much better advice if you just attach with the paperclip button

Yes, as I stated one of my lines needs replaced. How is the timing?

I will post a pull when I get the coolent line back on and adjust my throttle body. Any other tips or things to be aware of would be appreciated, I'm new to tuning.
 
I Have know Clue with out the Sensor working I have No way of knowing if the car is warmed up which I'm doubting based on the 1400rpm Idle...

Then again Just fix the the sensor without it your fueling is going to be all wrong as the ECU is going to be adding fuel since it thinks that it's -74 degrees outside.
I'm really not a fan of Dsmlink prior to V3 Ecmlink... But regardless how did you set the timing?

Just get this taken care of for starters...

Yeah I was just looking at that after your post LOL. I will see if it goes away after I put in the new line. The car wasnt too warm as you can tell by my idle (being that my target is 1,100 RPM) I didn't run it too long since it was leaking water. I set the timing from the bottom up after changing my belt.
 
How about posting something useful. If this is because I actually manually did the timing by the shop manual perhaps you should stop being so damn ignorant and get your hands dirty for once. Also I am getting ready to check my ECT and replace that plug.
 
Just as My1gDSM said, there is no way of knowing if your timing is good or not if you don't know what engine temp your car is at. The coolant sensor is actually very important part and it effects ECU control a lot. The ECU is going to adjust timing based on load, engine temp, air flow, etc. etc. If we or your ECU doesn't know what temperature your car is then we have no way of knowing if your timing is good or not.

I'll give you some extra Free advice,

There's lots of people here that are willing to help... Call people names or attempt to call them out. an those people won't be so willing to help...:thumb:


BTW Trust me I have... Take a look at my blog if you think I don't how to do ish. Or get "dirty"


As for the rest of what you said above ^

What I don't understand is how I can say repeatedly that your Engine coolant temp Sensor isn't working and you respond with you have a coolant leak... it's doesn't matter if you didn't have a drop of coolant/water in the car the sensor is going to be working...

I'm not sure what part of what I said was so hard to understand... I'll make sure to post more "helpful" information here :rolleyes:

From what you just said above, It makes me question if you even set your Ignition timing or expect us to know if your Physical timing is set correct from a 15 sec log.
 
I'm sorry if I came off rude guys, I fixed my ECT. This is a pull at 18.6psi about three quater throttle.
