Before I start I don't need peoples rude remarks and stupid comments, just looking for help, if you can't stop reading.
Well it started out when I was driving my car around beating it(like an idiot) and she started making awful noises. So I went on forums started reading about 2.7i swaps. Went and bought everything I needed. I started ripping into the 2.7 and found that the cam gear was super loose and I literally slipped the timing belt off. So I took the gear of and found that the one screw hole that holds it to the cam was egg shaped. So I thought that was weird. I started taking things off and putting the new stuff back on and I fired it up and it was making the same noise. Starting ripping into it to and found that the timing belt was ripped almost all the way through.
Now I know this is going to sound dumb but since I just replaced that timing belt I thought it would be good so I used that same one, but I don't know if it was ripped when I took the old head off or if I ripped it putting it back on or it ripped with the new head on. Now I know this is a long shot but anyone have any suggestions. I'm planning on getting a new timing belt obviously but I don't know what this could be. Since the cam gear was loose and it made it make the noise before and now the timing belt is loose and making the noise now as well, or it might not have anything to do with that at all.
My dads going to look at it soon but we are stumped beyond belief and I'd rather not take it somewhere and pay loads of money for something I prob could have done.
Please help, if you can't I don't need your stupid comments.
