Adjust headlight beam
The Sunfire 03 to 05 has one adjustment screw at the top. The back of the headlight has a tab that has to fit into a hole in the radiator support make sure it is in there or the headlight will be loose. I found after breaking the two adjustment screw plastic brackets. Remove the parking light brace from the radiator support one screw and as you carefully slide the headlamp in while pulling out the parking light. Hook the back of the bracket on the radiator support. If you break the plastic adjustment bracket (it twists in like a headlight bulb, but you can't buy it. Thank you GM) remove the broken piece of plastic and the rubber washer and spread it with plastic epoxy sets in 5 min and full hard in 24 hours, but hard enough in one hour and you can now beat it to death and it won't break why didn't GM make it permanent?
Having starting problems car will not start turns
I have a 03 pontiac sunfire that jump time. It also bent the intake valves on the head. I got the head repaired and got a new timing chain. According to the vehicle manuel repair book I am to align the intake balance shaft and the exhaust balance shaft with the crankshaft as well as the crankshaft to the cam intake and exhaust sprokets. This has all been done. I even did the tensioners on both cam and balance shafts according to the book. When I go to start it it jumps time. So I do it all again but this time I crank the crankshaft using a socket wrench and as it turns I see it starting to bind and then it gets loose on the right side where the intake valves are but I do not see where or what could be causing this. The chain just gets loose on one side ( Not tensioner side). I am confused please help.
