the timing on the 5.7s isn't critical. there is a line in both the pump and the atatchment plate. if the heads have been shaved you will find that if you line those 2 marks up it will be hard to start, blow white smoke on startup, and knock. move the pump to the right 60 thou if your standing in front of the motor, and u will find it will start and run better. hope that helps
Well i had anpontiac bonniville with a 5.7 d for ten years and 5 injector pump rebuilds and 2 engines later i can tell you lots of things as one of my friends used to work on them the injectore pump has timing lines set from the factory but over time or rebuid there not always accurate Oldsmobile came out with a cylider timing lite which you could reset the timing as the lines may nit be accurate but to find a mechanic or garage that still has the tool might be difficult to find sice olds brand no longer in existence and engines very rare now but be wary as it s the only true way to set your timing had to have mine redone evey 2 to 3 years as internal wear would take it out of timing {injector pump ]
A dirty air filter will cause a lost of power, also a clogged fuel filter will - Yes there are timing marks - but they are on the injector pump & usally don't change unless the hold down is lose. A good injector cleaner is a good idea to use when you fill-up.
No, timing is not adjustable. If timing is not correct a part has failed.
You don,t disconnect the computer on any car to adjust base timing. That,s what runs the car, you disconnect spark advance and that varies according to make and model. Take note if your car does not have a distributer and it,s a coil pack you can not adjust base timing that is done by the computer only. If your car has a distributer I would contact a dealer or get a Chiltons manual on how to set base timing. I could not tell you how to disconnect the advance on your car not formilar with your distributer
If equipped, it is behind the starter.
it is a knock sensor that is used to adjust the ignition timing.
There is no "fuel pump timing". If you mean injector pump timing, that requires special equipment not generally available to the home mechanic.
If you are referring to ignition timing, diesel ignition timing is primarily controlled by the injector timing. This is also why diesel engines run such high injector pressures. The timing is very carefully controlled by the vehicles computer.
One can set an injector for a 320 diesel marine engine by setting the timing and duration.
There is no ignition timing to set on a diesel. If you have somehow disturbed the injector timing you'll have to take it to a dealer, as setting that requires special equipment.
there are many models of injection systems. However in the common Bosch system using injection lines and nozzles, you rotate the pump in respect to the crankshaft or camshaft position. This advances or retards the timing depending upon the direction the pump is rotated.
the camshaft timing will cause the late injection process
Yes it does have a timing belt. The timing belt is at the top front of the engine under the diagonal cover. The timing belt runs from the cam sprocket to the injector pump sprocket.
i think it has a problem in your injection pump or injector. or try to check your timing and your heater.
Back side of the timing gear housing, on the front driver side of the block.
Fouled, damaged injectors or incorrect timing on fuel injector pump
clean on the front of the pump on top where it bolts on the motor there are timing marks there line up the long marks to set the timing.
Injector timing on b6000 is adjusted by adding or subtracting shims under the injector pump. Timing should be set with fly wheel timing mark on cyclinder #1
