Broke_Audio_Addict Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 Timing chains can still jump timing. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Quiet Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 I've had 3 cars with timing chains, never with a chain replacement, 2 went over 250k and the last one at 180k... never an issue with timing. Maybe if the moon's align and rainbows appear in the night would it happen, but it's probably less common than throwing a rod. Speaking of throwing a rod (i was so pissed) I did have a 95 cougar once with a 4.6L, floated the valves because the computer shifted the transmission into 1st a few times at 70. That one ended up dropping a valve into the cylinder and eventually broke a rod. The motor STILL ran with 7 cylinders and otherwise hadn't jumped time. 2007 Pacifica Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haaaaaaah timing chains aren't worth a damn any more Be like VW. If the engine rotates backwards it skips teeth. i.e. don't leave it in gear on a hill Also wasn't that OHV? Lot of the new ones are OHC. Need tensioners and guides and whatnot.

Yeah, didn't sound like timing went all to shit, but then again, it never ticked before it threw the code. Wondering if when it jumped a valve kissed a piston and knocked a lifter loose. 2007 Pacifica Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
