still got some good time out there this long weekend and knocked a few things out.
crank to cam timing ... cherry.
Compression #1-4 ... 365/360/360/320
any weird running is officially a pump issue. however i'm also still having issues keeping the pump adjustable sprocket to stay put. i'm to the point that i'm going to drill the sprocket/hub for a dowel pin, or drill and tap more holes at the ends of the slots to really lock it down. any other thoughts on this? my only conclusion at this point is that the 12mm pump is just too much for the factory deal. some of the weird running might be the timing just jumping around all over the place while running.
reverse lights wired and working, the alternator is the only electrical thing left. was shockingly easy to get all the gauges to work.
head pipe painted and wrapped ... because race TDI ... and finished connecting it back to the old factory xj muffler/tailpipe. hopefully this muffler doesn't kill to many of those cool turbo noises.
