I bought and installed a new engine today in my ls400. When its running its like the timing is off but I have done the timing belt twice now. How could it be that off? My measurments are 54 teeth between cam mark to cam mark and 77 teeth between the 78th crankshaft mark from each camshaft mark...

:firedevil: How is the pattern when tightening/torquing the main crankshaft caps?other than tightening the nut before the bolt.

Finally decided to do some surgery on my engine today to find the knock noise. Checked all the rod bearings and they were perfect. started in on the main bearings @ the 4th main and the bearings were completed spun where the notch had broken and was allowed to spin freely. I moved on to all...

My car throws a check engine light and code 25/26 air/fuel ratio lean and rich and cuts off my fuel supply! So I checked and swapped both precat o2 sensors and it makes no difference. I have loud exhaust leak after the cat where it connects to the pipe before the sub o2 sensor and also @ the...

If I have CEL fuel/air Code 25 and 26 and my car wont stay running does this mean the fuel pump is faulty? I cant hear the pump because I dont know where to find it on the gas tank inside the trunk. There is very minimal pressure through the gas lines and the fuel filter itself. I double checked...

Quick question: When I am removing the journal bolts that hold the camshaft in place, can I remove the journals one at a time without removing the timing belt from the camshaft? I am attempting to remove the bolts one journal at a time to keep the cam in place while the timing belt is still on...

Cheers all- I just had a serious incident with my LS. Was driving down the highway with bad tranny speed sensor and it cut tranny off like neutral when cruising @ 55mph. Pulled over to stop and restart/reset tranny to drive again (lived with this problem for awhile now).. engine starts and...

Here are some randoms maybe someone can help with. I for sure have one or both knock sensors malfunctioning b/c it throws me the codes when tested. I remember drowning these with antifreeze in the center "V" when replacing head gaskets. Would a symptom of faulty knock sensors result in a loud...

I was on my way to work when my transmission started slipping and my engine was stuttering. I pull over and my engine dies. I now cannot start my car. What do I need to start looking @ to repair the problem? FYI: Before this situation my transmission would start to slip after 5-25 minutes.. I...
