Message	I just changed my timing belt and intake gears. As soon as i started it i heard a ticking noise and immediatly shut it off. I searched and made a post and found out it was normal. I let it idle today till the ticking stopped and then i started to hear a knocking noise (sounded like i had a diesel truck). When i put on the timing belt i counted the teeth and lined everything up nicely i was sure i did everything right. Can this be cause im off a tooth?
