if anybody knows how my timing is supposed to be set on a f22b engine please let me know! i have the red mark on the flywheel lined up and the marks on my cams lined up facing up...dunno what else to do

 

I worked on a f22 once, I rebuilt it, but when I tried to start it, it wouldn't fire up, so, I pulled the car with my SUV around the block in 2nd gear with the ignition on and giving it a little gas, after a couple laps the engine started. My point is that when you don't start the car for a while it takes a lot to start it. If you don't want to do this, then just keep cranking it up until it starts, you will drain 3 or 4 batteries. If you did everything right, then I recommend you use the pulling technique. I've gone through the same problem 3 times, and pulling the car worked, so you know that I'm not making this up.

 

why were you in 2nd gear??

 

i went through this also i was adjusting my timing and had all marks lined up correctly and it sounds exactly like whats happeneing to you, make sure your head isnt cracked...if u know its not then dont mind me but i did the same thing and went throguh shit until i pulled the head and checked it and sure enough that was it

 

My jdm d15b, sat for who know's how long , and it cranked right up .... so i don't think that's true ....

 

Some cars start right up, but other cars have problems with the engine sensors, which may have some type of rust no them that prevents them from working properly.
