Hello all RnR the front end of an 85.5 engine, and all is great except for the fact that now my timing belt is rubbing against the back engine cover. I checked all of my spacers and they seem to be in order. I have two thick washers on the back of the tensioner and one on the back of the roller. The crank cam seems fine as does the cam gear. Not 100% sure how to attack this one. I did put a new water pump on, and a local guy is postulating that it is not flat on the back and is mounted at an angle causing the belt to ride owards the back. It is rebuilt, and I never heard of such a thing.
Any one want to venture a guess. I think my crank gear is not in the right plane....
