**BREAKING NEWS**********BREAKING NEWS*****

CRAP!!!!!! THE SUMMER OF GEORGE IS ALMOST OVER!!!!

Well it took 5 days and countless trips to Autoparts stores! But i finally got the Nissan Truck Running! Sounded like crap at first! Glad I read about the lifters having air in them for up to 30 minutes! Other wise I would have Freaked at how LOUD the lifters were!

I replaced the following parts:
Timing Chain
Timing Gears
Timing Tensioners
Timing Cover
Upper/Lower Radiator Hose
Misc Small Hoses!
Plugs
PVC valve
Belts
Gaskets-Oil Pan-Valve Cover-Oil Pump-and so many more....

Now I need:
Upper Ball Joints
Fuel Injectors

Timing Cover Removed

Here is a picture of the engine with the timing cover removed. And a new timing chain, gears and tensioners installed. What a mess!

Next time I will degrease engine first!

REMOVING THE FRONT AREA OF THE MOTOR

WELL TWO HOURS LATER AND THIS IS WHERE IM AT. STILL HAVE TO REMOVE THE HARMONIC BALANCER, OIL PAN, OIL PUMP, A/C COMPRESSOR AND MAYBE THEN I CAN REMOVE THE TIMING CHAIN COVER.
NOT SO BAD SO FAR.

TIME FOR NEW TIMING CHAIN KIT

Started with the engine looking like this!
