Gentlemen,
I have a 3.2 that has an odd, lumpy sound, at least to my ear. Extensive troubleshooting has found nothing until now- the valve timing check I did, with the engine in the car, produced the following numbers; #1 1.15 mm, #2 1.37mm. Has anyone had any direct personal experience as to the results of such a timing situation? I am debating pulling the engine over the winter to fix this. Before then, I'll check each valve for lift, to see if I have a bad cam lobe anywhere. The sound I am hearing sounds like a cylinder (or cylinders?) not pulling it's weight. It's subtle, but it's there. Any ideas?
