sioux falls,
South Dakota
ok, i just had the timing belt and balance shaft belt replaced. and now i am hearing some weird noises and now have a lack in power.
Before i had the stuff replaced the car made decent power (for being mostly stock) except for the clicking noise the hydraulic tensioner was making (extremely wore out)
but now the car has a pretty decent vibration in it, along with a lose in power. and also when i step into it, it starts to make what sounds like valve noise? and the exhaust tone is louder (noticed 2 bolts on the manifold to turbo were loose). But when i jump into it and let out it makes kind of a weird like valvetrain noise.
now two exhaust valves were replaced about 5 monthes ago and the head resurfaced but i dont know if i need to readjust the valves after the timing belt or what. because before all this the car ran good except for the ticking from the tensioner. But now it just seems that it has all fell apart.
let me know any ideas that you have i put on a OEM hydraulic tensioner, OEM timing belt and balance shaft belt, and all the new tensioner pulleys.
So now i dont know what to do here is whats on the car right now.
