To be honest it sounds fine. Perhaps a bit quieter. Perhaps thats the new throttle body. The old one was very gunked up.

it will probably run and sound a lot better than before as you have now set the timing perfectly and a new TB will also help it to run better, I bet you was Dancing when it started up give yourself a pat on the back a lot off people give up and put it into a garage and spend a fortune on parts that are not needed, by doing it yourself you know its done right and not thrown together by someone that doesn't really care about it, you'll sleep like a Baby tonight but ill bet your up early to get it on a drive lol |

Thanks Boxa. I will keep you posted. To be honest, I have enjoyed it. Been a long time since I used to do a bit of mucking about with cars.

modern engines are far more complex and diagnostic equipment is a must have tool nowadays, considering you haven't worked on engines for so long and managed to do your freelander is impressive owning a freelander is great but you really need to do your own maintenance and repairs and get to know you car otherwise garage cost can run away it sounds like you've now found a new hobby lol once again WELL DONE ! |

I don't plan on trying to shoehorn a v12 in the Freelander yet. Hopefully though, I can get this One running well again. Be interesting tomorrow once I get the aux belt on. |

The scan tool I'm using seems pretty handy. I believe it also does live data. Not that I would know how to understand any of that |

Hmmm ok Jim I think you should remove the engine check the washer bottle fluid level top up with screen wash neat not diluted winter is coming John Snow then refit the engine. Should be ok after that π |

My theory is the aux belt trashed the CPS and you may have slipped the timing removing the crank pulley the TB was probably worn out a long time ago but you didnβt notice it until you scanned it, As for the engine if itβs running ok then itβs ok if there was valve or rocker damage it would run unevenly and be very noticeable

Well done. If you've bent valves or rockers, then you'll here the sound of tappets. No tappets probably means no damage to the valve train. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car. 2009 Rimini Red SE TD4. Gone. 2006 Tonga Green i6 HSE. Gone. Audi A5 convertible, my daily driver. 1972 Hillman Avenger GT, the project. |
