I put a new timing chain, tensioner and camshaft plate on the engine - I now
find that it is very hard to turn the engine at least a LOT harder than it was
before. Is this normal or did I do something wrong?
Following instructions in Haynes - I turned the crankshaft so that the keyway
was facing up and turned the camshaft so that it was in the 2 oclock position,
lined up the two dots on the sprockets, and put them on. Took a little fiddling
to get the keyways lined up but it did go on. The two sprockets seem to line up
correctly - without shims - there were none when I took them off.
Any advice appreciated.
Rick
