quote: cant check timing marks by finding tdc with a screwdriver as TDC is about 15-20 degrees out from the timing marks on a c20xe. | |

its just like a plug that had a bolt through the middle of it going on to the block.it would probably still run though.so i doubt it would be that.if i was you i would check the timing then do a fault code test | |

you need to check tdc with a screw driver really.don't just rely on the marks.did you empty the hydraulic lifters too? | |

usually the fire ring between 2 cylinders goes between 3 and 4 on these engines. can happen over time with normal wear and tear etc... can be a sign of running lean as well. | |
