So im in the progess of dropping a new engine in my car. Well ilts actually already in just having wiring issues. w/e anyway lets track a few weeks back. So my friend and i were installing the clutch on to my new engine...now i didnt know this at the time but apparenly he loosened the tensioner bolt. i didnt see how loose it was so i couldnt say exactly. anyway, when i started to torque the flywheel on i hear clicking. that's when he went around and saw that the tensioner was loose.
My question is...would that have affected the timing between the crank and the cam gears? i looked at the gears and the arrows are both pointing the same direction, but i cant see the crank with the lower cover on. and i really didnt wanna try to loosen that crank pulley nut. im in the finaly stages of firing this thing up. and i dont wanna knock a friggin valve. Thanks!
