Okay, I got an ls/vtec runnin s300. Well saturday the screw backed out of the rotor in the distributer and chewed it all up. Long story short, I replace the distributer cap and rotor.
PROBLEM. I took pics of the timing line on the distributer and marked it and everything i could do except sticking a timing gun on the motor. Well it used to rev to 9k fine, But now it will got to like 8500k and it cuts timing (or fuel) and boggs out for 4-5 secs. I tried advancing and retardeing the timing about 30 times. Im assuming something in the s300 is causing this to happen. Like a safty or protector. Im new to s300 and if anyone could help that would be awesome.
Also. I would stick a timing gun to the motor but the motor will not run at 750rpms. It idles at about 1000-1100. so idk how to check it. i also dont no what the timing should be at becuase the motor has been tuned when it was in a buddys car and idk what jeff evans had set it too.(if that sounds right)
If anyone could maybe throw some idea it would be greatly apprciated.
