Hi all.
I opened the top cover and I started turning the engine to align the marks. Chain marks and cam marks do not line up...
There is no paint left on the 3rd mark of the chain. I marked marks on sprockets red for better visibility.
Do I need to turn it until they do, or at this point we know it jumped? Would it be saveable? I was able to manually turn the crank with a 50cm bar and 19mm socket.
I drove it probably 5 minutes before a full stop (low revs under 2k) after I heard the noise.
PS: what I found interesting, in every timing photo the coloured links are on top of the marks. In my case, the marks are pointing in between the links, not to the moddle of a link. Pic from repair manual for comparison.
thank you!
