project problems :/

[SoniX]

hello everyone, ive got a 97 940 2.3lpt project i have rebuild the engine with an A cam and she starts up and runs fine... for the most part.

ive got 2 issues

1. she is tappy ive messured the valve clearences and they are as follows (mesured when cold)

distributor <0.45-0.45-0.58-0.58-0.58-0.60-0.55-0.55> timing gear

i believe 0.40 is what im after so shimming should sort that issue if i am correct.. am i?

2. electrics....... the blower and wipers work with the ignition on when the engine is turned on they do not. i have no idea what the issue is. any ideas?

0.60mm is way too large, you'll definitely hear that. Spec is 0.35mm-0.40mm cold for adjusting, I have mine set up "loose" at 0.45mm and I hear a difference from .35mm.

.35-.4 is the spec.
