[@fbexpunge]

Hey man, thank you so much for making this video! Noticed my truck ticking a little bit so I did some research on the issue and found your video. Very well explained! I did the balancer chain adjustment (literally took 10 minutes!) and the engine team quieter than I had ever heard it. The tensioner moved like 3/4" just as you described. One minor correction however, the adjustment bolt was 10mm. Thanks again! Subscribed and liked the video!

[@WorldScienceTV]

Thanks so much I wish they let me edit or add captions just for that reason thanks and there is one other very important video I made on this truck b2600i problems

Thanks for your informative videos. Question, I have a 91 Mazda B2600i with auto transmission. I was going to change the transmission filter and pan gasket. I seem to remember doing this before and remember all the pan bolts being threaded into transmission except one had a nut on top that was a real bitch to get at. It has been awhile and I think I might be mistaken as I had a Nissan sentra that had the same issue. Can you verify that this has this or not. Also, I have a small leak from what I believe is the knockdown solenoid on the side of the tranny. Is this fairly easy to replace? Probably o ring ! I saw you video about these tranny failing if there is a blockage. I just felt like changing the fluid would be a good thing or would you just leave it alone and try and fix leak at solenoid. Its a tiny leak about the size of a quarter. Fluid color still good. Thanks in advance for your input ! Mike

Hello I'm looking for a drive shaft flange would you know where I could find one, I've looked most everywhere n having no luck thanks

[@CDX825]

I greatly appreciate you making this video! I finally got around to ordering lash adjusters for my truck. Ive had the valve cover off once to change the gasket but didn't pay much attention to the valve train. How much trouble is it to change the lash adjusters?

[@WorldScienceTV]

It is easy leave your timing chain on the sprocket and pull all the cam cap bolts and caps lift the back of the cam up and pull them out get a magnet to pull them and to keep control of them. Don't want them in an oil pan or stuck in an oil gully

[@kellsmith2188]

What’s the torque specs for the adjuster bolt? And plate?

[@lifeisamazing9980]

Some of the lifters were not working so I got new lifters but what I noticed was some of them can be pushed half way, some fully pushed and some are solid, should I put them in oil and pinch the hole to release oil so that they are all filled with oil and solid?

[@ninja4gaming263]

I want to hope it isnt oil rings but it kinda seems that way, it doesnt smoke while i drive but it does smoke upon starting, valve seals are likey worn causing that.

[@ianalbrecht1560]

The Hayne's says to remove the oil pan for timing cover removal. Is that really necessary? Not that I wouldn't mind dealing with another potential leak in the future, it wasn't leaking before, but I don't want to have to add that much work just for a head gasket and timing kit job. Maybe just a careful pull of the cover and rtv when replacing?

[@WorldScienceTV]

Yes you do have to pull the oil pan. the sump oil pickup tube bolts onto the timing cover and the main bearing caps.

[@ianalbrecht1560]

@@WorldScienceTV Oh wow, what have I gotten myself into? At least the manual doesn't say anything about installing an engine brace up top so that must mean the mounts will hold it in place while the crossmember is removed.

Thank you

You're welcome

[@johnbryan2414]

I have a slight stall, delay, or sputter when first pushing the gas. Any ideas?

[@joeykennedy7633]

Great video, would I have to drain the engine oil before I adjust the balancer chain?

[@WorldScienceTV]

No it is a really quick job

[@fixergood]

great video man hey I was wondering if you have ever pulled the engine out of a 4x4 model b2600i, i need to take the oil pan off to replace the timing cover, I keep finding info saying i need to pull the trans before pulling the engine curious if you have done it.

[@WorldScienceTV]

There are brackets that bolt to the tranny that bolt to the side of the engine you’ll have to pull those off of both sides and then you’ll have to lower the front Diff to get the oil pan out. I have re-ringed these engines in place

[@fixergood]

@@WorldScienceTV thanks for the reply man that's what I'm gonna do I already have a he head off I was hoping I could save time and pull the engine ,and not pull the he front diff out to get access. gonna re ring it while I'm there at this point , thanks again

[@WorldScienceTV]

FYI Mike the cylinders out the iron on these blocks were out fast and the oil delivery ports on the pistons to the oiling rings get plugged with carbon I would advise drilling more oil ports to the oiling rings

[@WorldScienceTV]

Change the coolant lines to the bottom of the throttlebody IAC while you’re there. I personally bore and re-sleeve with steel sleeves on all these blocks. Some people delete the oil sprayers this engine is prone to failure from dirty oil because of the oil sprayers. But this engine will last a long time if it runs full synthetic only and no paraffinitic oils

[@fixergood]

@@WorldScienceTV thanks for all the tips I'm gonna mic the cylinder s and buy new pistons hopfully and check my rod journals and all that to do semi rebuild if its do able. thanks again man

[@erasmosolis1963]

Hi, my B2600i 178 k miles and it has been making a noise for the first starts (in the morning) nonetheless; whenever I've used it for half an hour... And I turned it off... The engine has a nice sound...no loud 🔊 engine noise...

[@erasmosolis1963]

And wanted your thoughts 💭 and recommendations...

[@zolite7213]

i don't know if you've still got the truck or not but it sounds to me that you've got a pinhole in your exhaust manifold.

Hello Sir, I have a question regarding on B2600i that I bought on garage sale so I put starting fluid new spark plug and added some engine oil I put 2 gallons of new gas and some gas cleaner and injector cleaner and jump start on my other car to start and start then died it blows black smoke and the pressure regulator leaking into the connection leakage and I don’t know what to do please advice. Thank you

[@BUZBY1977]

Hi, great video, My 1991 B2600i has 145,000 miles and I can hear the balancer shaft chain mostly at idle. Tried to adjust as you described. Could only move it down 2 notches but I did not tap it, just pushed hard. The timing chain adjuster only out 4 notches. Should I have pushed harder on the balancer shaft adjuster? Surely the pivot bolt also stops movement? Thanks for your reply!

[@WorldScienceTV]

You may have to check your valve lash adjusters but first make sure your oil pressure is up

[@BUZBY1977]

@@WorldScienceTV Thanks for prompt response. OP is good. No noise coming from top end, just a slight normal ticking that is all. Noise is from timing cover. I might need to push harder on that adjuster!

[@WorldScienceTV]

If you can’t get any more out of it then it might mean that there may be broken components in the timing assembly

[@BUZBY1977]

@@WorldScienceTV Thanks, I will remove the cam cover and check down into the timing case.

[@poopl00p3r]

I primed my lifters to the max, put them on, and it didn't blow up. It ran quiet.

Hey good day, I have a question for you. I have a mazda b2600 year 2000, doesnt have alot of miles on it for its age but i am wondering if there is anything on these engines that could cause them to burn oil hard. My dad had it first when we had it it never used any oil but ever since he gave me it started to burn oil. Before he gave me he parked it for a year without driving it since then it burns oil.

[@WorldScienceTV]

Piston ring get stuck carbon up to the pistons and stick this engine has oil sprayers that spray underneath the pistons which put 10 times more oil in the cylinder walls to get into the combustion chamber once they start smoking they don’t stop until you pull them apart replace the piston rings and valve guid seals

[@WorldScienceTV]

The reason for this is running dirty oil in this truck this truck needs to run synthetic oil only no paraffin wax oils whatsoever like Pennzoil or Quaker State

[@ninja4gaming263]

@@WorldScienceTV Ok I see, I never knew I should use synthetic oil I use 20w50 regular oil chevron.

I tightened the balencer chain and my truck started misfiring. It has a rough/ low idle and will sometimes die around 2000rpm. What should I do?

[@WorldScienceTV]

If you over tightened it and you did nothing else and you were sure it happened immediately after you tightened the balancer chain then open the cover and loosen the tension a tiny bit. But!!!!!! a misfire!!!! that doesn’t sound like a balancer issue I would check to see if your cap rotor plugs and wires are all good first before messing with the balancer again you may have nicked or damaged a plug wire in the process

[@BrodyHenry96]

I did this adjustment and when I started my truck it was idling high and misfiring and after parking it all night it won't even start. Just cranks and cranks and cranks

[@kimberlyrickman9764]

hello, I adjusted the balancer for noise and now i am getting a whining noise that gets louder as you drive faster. did I push down to hard and now is to tight ?

[@WorldScienceTV]

Maybe Did you loosen anything else to get to it or only adjusted the balancer you may have a bolt stuck in Pully or something like that

[@kimberlyrickman9764]

@@WorldScienceTVI loosened the lower and I seen one above it. then I'm pushed down on the bottom one and tightened it up then tightened the upper one I loosened

[@WorldScienceTV]

you can pull the belts off the engine started up briefly see if the wine goes away if the wine doesn’t go away then it’s inside the engine. You’re a few things inside the engine that could be causing the wine the oil pump the balancer and a timing chain guide being broken.

If you need to you can connect with me on Facebook talk in person to help you diagnose your problem.

[@kl152ci]

Ever figure this out? I just did this and over all the engine sounds quieter, but there's that same whine you got that wasn't there before.

[@dirkdiggler9082]

Hi,are these engines reliable?I just bought one

[@WorldScienceTV]

Yes these are reliable engines but they start smoking early right around 140,000 miles because people don’t change the oil enough in them or they run perifenitic oil light Pennzoil and it wears down the cylinder walls faster

[@danielsvision]

The lifter tick always lets me know when I need oil and a service. 😂

[@jamespain7479]

Oi nah literally my oil pressure sending unit is shot and only works over 1k rpm depending on the angle but once I start hearing ticks I top-up oil n it's gone ahaha
