92 Geo tracker maintenence and valves!>.>
Ok so my friend and i bought a 92 16v Geo tracker 4x4 for fun\project for the summer.
specs and problems.
101k
check engine light is on.
has a slight chatter from behind the left tire while idling.
engine is not noisy at all but idles around 2200 but we didn't let it run long
(cracked radiator)
seemingly well maintained until most recent owner who bought it as a field vehicle.
upon starting it blew out gray smoke, from my own research i have found
it could either be 3 things, burning oil, water or valves need adjusted.
the guy said it stopped smoking after it warmed up ?
in any case how would i go about advancing the timing? i have been on other forums with no response and alot of them seem to be running with 8degrees of advancement for power they say.
its an old engine and the frame is sound as the day it was produced (still has undercoat on it!! )
so any ideas?
