  • Timing belts jumped and so on!

    Hello, I have an Opel Vectra A 2.0 liter machine. I skipped the timing belt. 10 belts/tooths were gone. I then replaced the water pump and timing belts. And now it doesn’t want to start any more. The starter makes the impression as if it would have been difficult. The lamp in the car also goes out. I thought that the battery is too weak and I used another car and tried to start it with a starter. Unfortunately not possible. Then I removed the timing belt. I don’t have the alternator on it (mechanically, not a V-belt on it). But it can’t be because I have a second car, which is still running. I’m at the end. I don’t know any more. I don’t think I’ve installed the timing belt incorrectly, because it doesn’t work. At the top is a marking and at the bottom is the roll of the thorn. But without the timing belt it would have to run after all? Or is the machine flat? I have rotated at the bottom of the belt roll. I realize that it can be partly hard and partly simply rotated during idle. I also notice in one place as a swing as if a spring would hit off. I can also turn at the top of the camshaft and notice that at different positions it also spins off on its own (with force). Thank you for your support in advance.

  • chip + gas

    hello, whenever you say ‘gas’ or ‘save’ in a breather, you’ll get as ‘yes, why not buy a car with the desired power’ or ‘all one chip = more covert, chip + gas is much more harmful’. as far as everything is reasonable, however, the motor around which I am concerned is a 1.6t (z16let) of opel, which is to be chipped on about 210ps/300nm. this is known to be gas-proof, but has a small space of space. and exactly in such a case one would have to get the opposite answer. the ‘high-breeded’ the engine is better for him, the better gas is for him. or: the more radical one can ‘bubble it up’. I just wanted to know if I think about the right direction. are the 225ps offered by eds in connection with a (possibly liquid) gas system, the better one can ‘bubble it up’, or is just about the same as the ‘bubble’?
