Re: Tming Chain Stupid Question

Moving on from the timing gear issue. I don't think we've solved his 
problem.

The stalling sounds like a timing related problem. I suggest he check 
the spark plug firing order. Especially 5 and 7.  Car will run with 
these swapped but  not very good.

One common problem is a vacuum leak but the motor usually runs faster, 
not stall out, as in Nico's case.
