Since you probably had the cam gears off, Make sure that the pin in the exhaust points to E and the pin in the Intake points to I.
When everything lines up, your first cam lobes should point outward, also. |
that link describes it better.

Update: the car now starts.
But will only idle with the throttle cracked, Vacuum is low around 5 in hg, and its running around 10 A/F normally 12A/F at idle. the IAC is sucking what seems like a lot of air. If I plug the IAC and start it with the throttle cracked it pulls almost 10 in hg. I will let the car cool down then try cam timing again? any other thoughts? |
More pictures just in case, please.
I loved "We doubt because we care", hahaha! |
okay I will tear into it again and send more pics

it's pretty easy. here's how the cam lobes are supposed to be on the first cylinder closest to the timing belt.

correct cam timing https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1314395440 New plug, ran about 30 minutes |
The car is running rich, has a low idle around 500R RPM, and has low vacuum around 5 In Hg. Any pointers?
|
Could be a tooth off?
|
Bent valve? lol j/k.
|
playing with the cam sensor position brought the idle way up and also brought the vacuum up to about 17 in Hg. Still quite not right but I will mess with it more on Sunday.
|
lol @ "we doubt because we care" :makeout:
Compression test to rule out the obvious, then reset your base timing. |
I dont know if that mark on the wheel is just a scratch or an indicator mark but are you sure the cam is lined up correctly?
|
Reset MS and did base timing it runs pretty well now just need to iron out a few things with the tune and all should be good. Thanks again for everyone's help!
