everything in the pic? mmm idk..hows $30 shipped

 

yea you can keep the oil pump, and water pump if you would like. i really just need the timing cover and gear. how many miles would you say were on that chain? you got paypal?

 

i dont have a water pump...roughly 40K on all of it..i [email protected]

pm me your addy...i'll get it out tomorrow, you need it ASAP right? i'll ship it Priority

 

what year is your truck btw..this is all of a 91 22re

 

hes got a 89 22r. I would not use that chain, I would spend a few bucks more and get a new kit from advance or ebay... I really wouldnt trust ebay or any non oem timing stuff 40k seams like too many miles to put all that work into it.

 

i actually agree, i would only use a used chain if i was in a pinch or needed a quick fix

 

yea definatley what do you guys think of duralast parts from autozone? that was who made this timing set. i can get just the chain for like 17.99.

im thinking i could use the stock timing gear and be ok?

 

Where's engnbldr when you need him

 

As long as there is no visible damage to the gear, it's not an issue. Clean it good and checkit very carefully for any cracks or nicks. if it's clean then you're good. Any visible wear and it should be tossed. You don't wanna take any chances with it. How does the cam sprocket look?

Defiantely a new chain, don't even mess with it. Just like used brakes, not something to ever be reused... too much of a safety issue.

 

im fairly certain that the cam gear is fine. but ill definatley double check before putting it back together you know. i dont want to do this 3 times. (knock on wood)

 

use your factory cam gear, gunna be better then duralast bs....unless its got obvious wear to it... just buy the new chain, some gaskets, call it a day..

 

send me that timing cover nignog. for free fiddy

 

lol havent heard that in a while.. Im broke man, I only work 3 hours a week

 

well i dont work at all!!!. i gets unemployment from da governmentz. and i got to school 35 hours a week

oh and usps. if it fits it ships, for a low flat rate!!

 

so i found a timing cover off an 85 on craigslist. but the guy says it has 3 studs instead of the 2 i had for the water pump.

would this fit on my engine? and is the water pump mounting location the same?

 

I'm pretty sure the block changed in 86...
Before that was a bit different...
Something with the block deck height I think...?
So I don't think it will fit!?

 

yea i knew they changed. but im not sure if it was in 85 or 86. hopefully someone will chime in with this

 

I looked at some blocks from Belltech and they didn't help much either. They have 2 kinds 84-95, and for the taco's. the only thing I can think of is the drive line angle difference?

 

your good, hes dumb the timing cover should fit from 84 up. the studs come out, fall out, and get lost or stuck to the nuts you take off when you pull it off... so if anything get a vice grip and pull a studd out, or put a nut on it.

 

This sounds dirty.




Aren't all timing covers the same?
