okay so heres the deal i just recently swapped out my ka24e for a ka24de and on the harness near the throttle position sensor theres a black square plug thats a 3 or 4 prong and i cant for the life of me find out where it goes...the motor cranks and cranks but doesnt turnover. A couple of my friends seem to think that my distributor timing is off but i have the rotor lined up with cylinder #1 on the cap, im not mechanically inclined to even know what the hell to do, and one of my friends says that if i mess with the distributor timing too much i can bend a valve, yeah thats the last thing that i need. i TDC'd my motor and took the valve cover off to see if my camshafts were correct and as far as i can tell they look correct, im getting spark as for fuel i dont know but i believe that i am because i hear the fuel pump kick on when i turn the key to accessory. If the vacuum lines arent hooked up right would that cause it not to start? or just start and run like shit? IF ANYONE HAS PICS OF WHAT THE CAMSHAFTS AND SPROKETS BEHIND THE TIMING COVER ARE SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE TIMED CORRECTLY PLEASE LET ME SEE THEM...AS WELL AS ACTUAL PICS OF THE PROPER VACUUM LINES BEING HOOKED UP THE FSM DOESNT REALLY HELP ME THAT MUCH. I have the jim wolf pics and my camshafts look to be on time, so if it isnt my base timing and there is a possibility that it is my distributor timing as well as my vacuum lines could someone help me figure out how to set the distributor timing without bending the valves and shed some light on the vacuum lines for this n00b...lol? ive searched and searched so i hope no one flames me to bad haha im just a 240 noob tryin to learn...Thanks!
