my friend using bt20V engine in his seg. when he the rpm reach 3k above, there's a sound coming out from valve cover. normally the tapet will giving sound but this one more louder. any recommend mechanic in seremban area?
Usually below 3000rpm its normal to have the diesel sound, but if half-throttle at below 3000rpm, the sound will disappear. If you are hearing sound above 3000rpm, then there's something wrong with the VVT pulley or maybe the engine is pinging (knocking). Knocking will sound like someone is knocking the engine with a screw driver.... LOL
hehe the sound will disappear and will apear again in some times.....
best way to test out is wit wat bro chinozie said ....unplug the VVT sensor cable ....then u test.....if problems still occur u try see ur distributor timing got lari or not lor .....
I'm curruntly using a stock FD ECU. Did CO check and found out my FD is running on very rich side on idle. Did smell some feul during idle but no black smoke thou.... I do have a exhaust temp and on...
yesterday i just install my ground cable....
first is that my car is old..
so originally.. if open lights.. the rpm will drop a bit..
but then.. after i install ground cable, also same.. :(
