Dankie Johan. Ons is nooit te oud om te leer nie...

[@edisonlessonstolearn6982]

Thanks a lot...I've learned a simple a nice method. This is really helpful to those who are keen to learn..

[@michaelboyle7668]

Exactly the right way

[@claymunsamy]

Thank you for this and sharing your knowledge

[@basedsigma5634]

That is true mechanic way.
If you set thousands, you figure out a simple way with spark plugs out..., start one side, finish other side on a straight or one bank on a v then do other bank. Forget complicated firing sequence.
Turn motor on crank bolt clockwise until exh valve is just starting to open, then adjust INTAKE on that cyl(lifter /pushrod is on the back of cam)opposite lobe ramp wherever cam or cams are, same for any 4 stroke.
After you adjust intake, rotate until intake valve on same cylinder opens fully and closes 3/4 .
Now ADJUST EXHAUST .
Repeat on next cyl...and do on.
Easy peasy bra😁👍

[@johanankarback6821]

Thanks! That is great info and very good presented. I would love to see a video about torquing down the headbolts on a Essex V6. There´s a lot of confusing info about this on the web and that´s something you don´t wan´t to get wrong.

Thank you that was very informative

[@errolthompson292]

Thanks.

First thing is to cover up the intake not to drop something into it ! Simply devide the crank pulley in to three marks 120° appart. Start on the tdc mark with number one on compression then simply follow the fireing order ! Every next mark is the next number of the fireing order ! Louw from PRO - MECH ! My personal patent !!

Would love to see you experiment on a essex v6 60thou pistons nice cam straight pipe exhaust built for motorsport. High revvs knive edged cranks etc. Port and gasflow heads etc... More or less how much does a setup like that go for Johan +-? Coming out of Johans auto
