When I put the car back together after changing the timing belt, I made very certain that Cyl. 1 (passenger side) was at TDC, and that the cam gears were lined up appropriately. Simply because of all the horror stories that I've heard about the damage that can be done otherwise.
I started the car up, and it ran fine. The idle was a little high, but smooth. I didn't drive the car anywhere else for the weekend. Today, I go to work, and the car is GUTLESS! And I mean REDICULOUSLY gutless. Could I have the belt on too tight? I listened to the car, to make sure that it wasn't slapping valves or anything. Sounds like normal. Would you be able to hear it? I don't know why I'm sweating that, since I am confident that I aligned it right. But I don't want to let ignorance cost me big here. Could it be that my timing belt was so loose before, and the engine was timed to it, that I just need to redo my entire timing? any suggestions appreciated.
