Re: High Knock in my Talon

Well I got the lifters and the timing tool today in the mail. Installed the new lifters, went to crank it up, and something was wrong. Didn't want to start, it did start once but it sputtered horribly and died. Compression test showed 150-0-0-150, and the 2 spark plugs that came out of there looks really wet. I am not sure what went wrong as I've done about a dozen timing belt jobs before, and just the other week went over it all again with Craig. But anywho, head is coming off because I'm guessing something is fucked up in there. Kinda sucks since I was hoping to get it up today, and to the shop to be painted.

But on the bright side, I guess this will be my opportunity to get my some better springs and retainers in put in!
