Message What would cause the timing mark on the pulley to appear on the right of the timing marks? I have more than quadruple checked my timing belt, counted teeth, etc. I just put on OEM pulley on, checked timing belt again, and put all together and this crap is still off.

The motor purrs when it runs, starts easily, etc.

Can't rev past 2k hardly, runs fine but seems like it doesn't wanna rev up.

Timing mark on pulley is about 5deg to the right of zero in unmarked territory. I can get the mark to the left of zero(BTDC) about 3deg but it runs rough and the CAS will be all the ways to one side.

Could the CAS be somehow incorrectly installed?
Could a small vacuum leak cause this? I do have one small one I am gonna fix

Also, when I FIRST start the car and during the time it's cold the timing mark is where it needs to be (around 15deg BTDC) on the pulley and when it warms up it goes way out of whack.

Ideas?

My profile is updated with any relevant info. Thanks for any help.
