useless

Today i installed the new cam It backfired no power wouldnt idle....So i realised i put too many shims in took it all out and stuck everytjing back to standard and put it back in .Standard cam standard everything...I started it and it backfire lacks power wont go fast at all and when it gets to 60 and i let it go it sounds quietThen when i accelerate it back fires and i can sometimes hear popoing in the inlet .I am so down..i am sooo tired....When I reinstalled the lifters I took all the shims out and stuck it all back to standard I wish i never touched the car in the first place .But i need to know some things??? Firstly why would it misire,Have i accidently moved the gear a tooth?OR have i screwed up the lifters?They seemed fine before and they pushed straight into the slot ..assuming That every thing is back to standard now what can it be anyone???Its terrible

sounds like you have bent a valve mate. How many shims did you put in?????
either that or its slighly riding the cam and holding the valves open.
Pull rocker gear of and run straight edge accross valve heads, make sure all valves are same height, one sitting lower could be bad news



******** did you fit vernier gear ??????

yep sometimes you cant be too carefull.And its not as easy as it looks .If you are a first timer allow 12 hours for the job.I was exremely careful.But you see ..sometimes your mind goes into overdrive and you miss something ..normally its the most obvious thing too..Your so focused on the main points...Now I know it will take me 1 1/2 hours to do it ehhe
