Message	So I 100% screwed up putting the plen back on and lost the rivers side VTC actuator behind the coil. Did not catch it, did not get a cel and the car felt okay-ish. About 30 mins into the shake down drive started hearing an odd tick above 3k. Pulled over and could not hear anything or find anything so drove it home. Short version is I found and connected the pigtail and it seems to have made things worse. I am going to do compression test tomorrow but currently thinking the worst. My search powers might be off but can anyone tell me if the VTC actuator not working would allow valves to hit? It for sure sounds like top of the motor and the drivers side… "Give me a 300ZX Twin Turbo and a three-day weekend in the Sierra Nevadas, and i'll come back with the meaning of life."
