sup guys been a while since i been here, well my water pump went out, and took the timing, but the timing still good but shredded up, also i see that there is a hydraulic tensioner, do i have to replace that part or can i just leave it? its a SOHC with 180k with the stock head gasket as well, but the good thing is about the neon, water pump and timing is only 80 bucks.
also i keep getting check engine light coming on, saying i have a misfire, i change my plugs, wires, coil pack, radiator, battery, but i still have the original 02 sensors, original cat, this problem only happens on cold start ups that the car is a really big time having trouble to start, and it takes about 1-2min to start, and there is getting fuel, its like if something happen, but once it starts every thing is fine, but ill make a video once i get my parts and answers.
thanks

well i put a new water pump, timing belt, and tensioner pulley, and the hydraulic tensioner is still good, but when i spun the motor by hand to make sure there will be no piston slap, i notice the belt moved in towards the motor on the water pump area, and every thing else is fine, where the water pump is at, looks like the belt is almost touching the back plastic guard, any one know why could be that?
