Timing is basically the synchronised motion of the crankshaft and the camshaft(s) and for gasoline engines also the timing of a spark at the right time. Some engines use a belt ( like this one here) some use a chain or regulars gears only.

@@Wasketa engine was not locked up. It’s a marine engine. Probably the air vent valve was broken, so it sucked water in. So it had water to compress, wich it will not ofcourse 🙂
@@Marinepartsystem you said "this is what happen when you use grease instead of oil". NOBODY puts oil between headgasket and a block/head. And if they use the grease, and start the engine, you will never find it this way like you try to tell us. Why am I even writing something. Its just bullshit.
The tape makes a slight wobble because it’s not 100% even. It’s a fast way to test for a clear sign of bent valves. But it’s pretty clear wich one is bent and wich one is not. Clearly the last is bent! Thanks for your comment!
We know! Thanks! It’s a informational video. We replaced them and everything is running fine again. Engine mounts should be replaced every 5-7 years, these were the original that came with the boat and engine. About 20 years. So the time was due!
