So if you saw my previous post my oil pump broke and i shut it off in time. So i droped the transfur case and pulled the engine and replaced the oil pump. here are a list of things i replaced.

 

Timing belt

Re-sealed oil pan

Oil pump w/front main seal

New oil filter

ATF flush

New radiator (my falt)

new water pump

 

After nearly a month of donig this by my self I have goten the car back up and running. But i have LACK of power. tranny leval seems to be good shifts fine. Just feels like it dosn't have the power it used to. I did adjust timing and i cant seem to find anything on setting timing in the FSM. Has anyone else run into this?

 

Let me know thanks.

Did you make sure the timing belt was lined up perfectly? If it's off by a tooth or 2 it can do that. Or maybe the o2 sensor has decided to quit?

Timing belt isn't on 100%, clogged catalytic converter, o2 sensor, clogged vacuum lines...

This is the 3erd time i have put the T-belt on.

 

Im still cant find the timing process in the FSM can someone point me in that direction? Also I just found out im low on trany fluid.

 

Also The engine temp went up a little past 1/2 way before i started driving it is this normal?

No that's not normal. It should stay around the 1/4 to 1/3 mark at all times. Is the thermostat stuck? Backwards? To check for flow, turn on your heater to hot. If it's blowing cold air you have a collapsed hose or your thermostat isn't opening or is backwards.

 

Timing: dunno.
