so i still cant get the damn thing to go to 10 degress btdc its either at 15 and dizzy is adjusted all the way or i move it a tooth and its wayy off but it still runs... maybe thinking cam gears are flipped? ive checked the tbelt 2 times and all the lines line up but no freakin luck!! i have the te1 and t1 jumped. or i dont rmember what letters they were but i know there right i just did brand new complete heads from clearwater. it runs but timings off and has no power... are the cams gears the same? even if they were flipped? and the lines line up... i just need help i need to get offroad already lol lett mee know thanks

 

Ok, you've got it jumpered but is the check engine light flashing?

If not, you don't have it jumpered correctly or your TPS needs adjusting.

 

yeap the cel is flashing no codes though......... just flashing anyone could it be the cams gears are flipped? i think there the same they have timing marks on bohot sides of the gear....

 

The cam gears are the same, but even if they were different, you should still be able to time the distributor.

Are you sure when you moved the distributor a tooth, you moved it the right direction, and only one tooth?

 

yup only one tooth it wont go in any otherway.. idk wtf is wrong. checked tps that was good now im just stumped...

 

I had a similar issue and had to have all the screws adjusted on the throttle body. They were basically all set back to "correct". Throttle stop, dashpot, idle air control and maybe one other. And then TPS adjusted. Only then was timing set. Runs smooth like cream now. Good folks at Toyatech only charged me one hour labor.

 

hmm maybe i should try that then how much total?

 

i believe it was $81 to re-adjust all the screws I had already "adjusted". I had adjusted them all into complete idle and running hell. they made it all better. And painted all those screws with yellow paint that means "hey numbnuts! DONT TOUCH THIS SCREW!"

 

haha yea dang so idk if that will fix my prob though my prob seems to be mechanical i give it a large vaccumm leak like the brake booster hose and thetiming stays on the same position
