By two ways, do you mean flipping it? Nothing really seemed to line up with hole 'B.'


It appears I did put it in upside down: the rusty side of the wheel should be facing the rusty side of the pulley. Shiny ring side of the pulley should face the crank. I might have even made that shiny ring while cranking with these pieces loose..

Yes, I meant flipping it over. The teeth do not line up symmetrically with the pin.

Holy fuck, it runs!

thank god! so the issue was the timing wheel?

Yeah dude. Self imposed bullshit.

So anyways, happy ending! See the best part?

Per flyinmiata the factory torque spec is 109 - 152 inch/lb on the pulley bolts.


Does the sensor use a magnet or something?
