head to tdc?

[ahalfacre5]

Can any one tell me how to reset my engine timing. I fucked the timing and head gasket when my rocker arms broke and I need to know how to get the timing back when I replace the head gasket. Thanks in advance

timing marks when did my super eta stroker same as video .Old school way is you can pull number one spark plug put penis in the whole with remote crank or a friend have them crank car when the air pushes out or piston hits your dick its top dead center.

SNIP...http://www.pelicanparts.com/bmw/tech...iming-Belt.htm

This is a good effort by pelicanparts, but it doesn't show or say anything about the valve cover blind plugs under the valve cover gasket. These four rubber plugs (two at the front of the head at two at the rear) become hard and brittle and can cause vacuum leaks, as well as small oil leaks on to the timing belt. These things are all too often overlooked! Replace them while doing the belt change.

I love my e30 but I don't know if I would stick my Dick in it, especially while a friend is watching....

Sounds like if no one was watching you might just go for it

Bump for I hope I didn't fuck my engine

So I took my head off to do the gasket, and I was cleaning the carbon off the pistons and turned the crank over a few times to access each piston.

So when I put my head back on all I have to do is set both head and block to top dead center right?

I'm asking because someone told me that now I cranked the block over a few time I need to re adjust all my valves and set my timing to the distributer and all this shit.

I thought you just set both to tdc, tighten bolts, and put on timing belt? Right?

Turn the engine until the mark on the crank hub lines up with the notch in the lower timing cover. Next turn the cam until the cam sprocket mark is lined up with the mark on the head. Then put head on the engine and install the timing belt. Then engine/head is now in time.

When installing the head, make sure that both dowel pins are in place.
