found out today that some how my crak key broke off. i've got a new one coming in and i was wondering if you can just tap it back in or you have to take the sprocket off then put the key on and the sprocket back on. hopefully i can just put the key back on but imput on this would help.

 

And your bent valves will still need the heads off and a lot of other stuff. to
fix.

The crank key is just the tip of the damage.

 

dont know yet if the valves are bent bc it was only at idle when it happned. i'm gonna try to press the key back in when i get it back. if the valves are bent i'm gonna to a total rebuild when i get the motor down.

 

If it's the crank key and you didn't do pulley work then Nissan has a warranty you can argue with.

 

yeah i can take them to court and prove my side but that could take 2 years and i just want my car back. i've already got the dealership on the local news for screwing customers and they tried to make it look like i was in th fault but they havent replied my bbb complaint.

 

hey did you ever find out if your valves were bent ? Same exact thing happened to me .
