What did you do to your BG(part 8)

[Racerboy]

Agreed .. love not taking off the VC to do timing !

I agree. awesome tool. But why would you have to take your valve cover off to do timing?

IF the cam timing is off you need to line it up at the top

What do you mean? I've never had to take the VC off...

Today I tried to start the 323 and get it running, but the battery is flat and won't recharge. I can't loosen the bolts on the battery cables to remove the battery. I also managed to loose a wrench in my engine bay. It always seems to be the easy things with cars that waste my time. I give up

me either. although if you have a Kia or miata valve cover then you would have to.

[Racerboy]

Yeah, if you have a standard escort or protege valve cover, you don't need to remove the valve cover.

[lowetgt]

I am going to be running the BH cover. Cut the cover, but not enough to make belt easily removed.

Oh, duh, I'm an idiot, those look nothing like P1s haha

me either. although if you have a Kia or miata valve cover then you would have to.

I took my BH, BP valve cover to a machine shop and had them cleanly cut the cam gear cover off, and with some additional trimming I have the better looking cover, and can use the normal backing plate with it, so timing it is just like normal.

Nice Bo! Lookin good. I've been slacking on mine... Everything is ready, just avoiding an alignment for the time being.

[Mazda_Powered]

BO! Looks awesome man!!

Looks great, but those lug nuts make me cry.
