How would you torque it with having to hold the screw so it doesn't spin? Guess would need a wrench type torque wrench. Also, need sealant in corners of the valve cover.

What is the measurement of the intake and exhaust calibration of a d16z6 engine?

[@kostastzoras2485]

Hi mate. While you were trying to rotate the crankshaft I noticed you ve let the sparkplugs on and the compression building up in chambers wasnt letting you rotate the crankshaft precisely. Wouldnt it be better with them off? Im just starting my journey into engines and Im just discussing. Keep it up, good content.
Ps.: Does it happen to know if wrong valve adjustment can be responsible for a little lower (20psi) and slower (2-3 more cranks needed to reach there) builded compression in a cylinder?

[@madmikesgarage4861]

You can let the spark plugs in. You just have to go slow to let the compression bleed off. It would be better if they were off, but not needed if you go slow. A wrong valve adjustment could be responsible for lower compression, but i would think that it would be more than 20PSI drop but it still would be possible.

180 not 360

[@madmikesgarage4861]

I mis spoke there thanks

how did you get the top timing cover off without moving the power steering line

[@onlywenilaugh6589]

You can work it off without removing the steering line.
