Hey stocker.
The Guy does timing all the time on hyundai's only... so i dont think that will be a problem. Unless the 1,8 cams need to be timed different from a 2.0 cam

And Bullfrog
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>1. the helicoils, were they on there before or did you have to drill out bolts?</div>


No, the threads on the head were damaged when installing the 1,8 cams. no drilling out.


<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>2. Did anyone use a torque wrench at any step of the way?</div>


Yes the torque wrench was use by the HYUNDAI AGENTS.


<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Its going to be loud, your going to wear your cams out more, metal smacking metal is'nt good for long periods of time. Its throwing your timing off a bit as well. Poor performance and bad millage.</div>


Performance is normal as well as milage... just takes long from low RPM but then picks up. I guess this is because the 1,8 cam


<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Only when absolutely necessary. If you have an oil issue not getting to the HLA's then there could be more damage done then just loud ticking if your oil pressure is low or non-existent. If it were my car, i would try not to drive it until i found out whats going on.</div>


It is my daily so i want to fix it ASAP... I am thinking its a faulty oil pump... How to check the oil pump. I think the car should show the low oil light on the dash
if it is low oil pressure?? or not???


IM REALLY LEANING TO THE THOUGHT OF THE OIL PUMP... PLS TELL ME HOW TO CHECK IT.

THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP GUYS!

 

Off the top, I'm going to say it involves a gauge installed in the oil system Remove one of the plugs in an oil gallery and thread in the gauge. The light is a warning the pressure is critically bad, not a "could be better" indication.

 

Not enough oil to the HLA's doesn't qualify for the critically bad? Maybe its in the fringe. Or his oil sensor has craped out.

 

It wouldn't seize up. Check webtech for the PSI range at which it activates. If a passage in the head were clogged and they were not getting enough oil, it would still run. Loud. My impression (based on nothing I can think of at the moment) is that the light means "keep driving, risk your bottom end long term". That's why old cars made for intelligent drivers had a GAUGE for oil pressure. It would stink if the light were burned out.

Come to think of it, does the oil pressure light come on with the rest of them at startup?

 

Hey Guys.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Come to think of it, does the oil pressure light come on with the rest of them at startup?</div>

Yes the cars oil light does on during the Acc position. And when the engine starts it goes off. Like normal. Nothing new.

I will do the oil pump test.

Can someone teach me how to use webtech....
I can login but dont know how to access the information that i need.

Thanks

 

Mostly you need to click around to get a feel for it. When you get into the shop manual it's broken down by system, and you have to drill down to find what you want.

 

Hey guys,
I found out something new after driving the car tonight..
This is what happens.

When in idle and standstill. I lean my foot on the accelerator and press it slowly till around 1800RPm's and try keep it there.
the the RPM's fall to 1000 and rise back to 1700 then fall to one and rise to 1600 and then fall to 1000 and rise to 1500
and it keeps same 1400Rpm the 1000Rpm the up to 1300RPm...... carries on.
So my foot is constant but the revs move up and down up and down... only does this at 1800RPm..
If i keep pressing the accelerator slightly more to go beyond the 1800RPm's more then it wont go beyond 1800RPm for a while..then after
slowly pressing the accelerator in small increments then it eventually will go beyond 1800 RPm.
I only notice this at 1800rpm..
I think that is why i kept stalling the car today morning...

Hope this gives you guys an idea of whats happening to my car..
I really have to fix it...Breaks my heart to see it like this..


Thanks for any thoughts!

 

firts, check timing, then check 02 sensor and throttle position sensor. look for vaccum leaks (broken hoses, open ports...)
