ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    code 8 help

    ok i need help a.s.a.p before i buy more unnecessary parts.....

    My car on monday took awhile to start as then while i was driving the CEL cam on wich was a big surprise because the car never had a CEL since i got it... i did the codes, and only one came up it was code 8 TDC, i guess my timing was off so i went ahead and checked timing and i was right it was way off!!!...but as soon as i finished the reset timing and started the car it hesitated again to start and the CEL came onn once again it was code 8,.....I thought the code was B.Sing me so i tried to reset the ECU, still Code 8 CEL, i chaged the plugs thinking i have a spark issues but stil car hesitates to start and code 8,

    my timing is good wires and plugs are good, starter is good aswell....

    what the is going on here?.....

        one more question though?....do i replace the whole distributor or is it easier to just replace the sensor by opening the housing up...
