So I got the bolts for the tensioner off a 2.2L cavy at a junk yard for $2, and the timing chain oiler that I "lost" was bolted to the engine the whole time.... I'm a ******* moron.

Alright. Go ahead and think of the thing or person or whatever you hate the most. Just pure loathing. Now times it by 10, and thats how much I hate my engine.

I'm just gonna lay off working on my motor for a little bit. Even though, I have EVERYTHING and all thats left is for me to finish assembly, and drop the motor in. Its far too stressful to do after work. Today, I got so mad, I literally saw red, and caught myself right before I smashed the **** out my engine with a 15/16 wrench. I ******* hate that motor, all I did was be nice to it after I blew it up. Bought it custom parts, and had a it frozen to increase strength, I keep it all nicely covered so dirt/dust don't get in it, and it repays me by doing stupid ass **** that no other engine does! HOW THE **** DOES THE TIMING CHAIN SLIP 3 TEETH WITHOUT EVEN TURNING THE ENGINE OVER!?!?!? *throws computer down and runs outside... loud tinging of metal hitting metal....* Anywho, I'm gonna take a little break from working on the piece of sh.... on my motor, before I have a heart attack at the age of 19

sweet. i'll be back in Iraq, but honestly Hb is the nicest place to live. i've been all over, and would move there in a heartbeat.

my house is 1100 square feet, and it's valued at 850,000. even with the housing market, it's ridiculous.

No. I was turning the motor over to adjust those cam gear bolts. As I looked, the ******* chain was 3 teeth off... some how. The loud tinging was me using that 15/16" wrench as a baseball bat

The upper timing chain retainer was on an torqued down
