Hello,
My intro, to say the least, was the worst I have ever read. So, let me try this again, if I may, and thank you. I have a 1986 C20 with what I believe, due to the #'s stamped on the block by the alternator, is a 400 out of a 1979 G30 van. 6 days after purchase timing chain slipped off. I decided to take the pan off to check things out and found the screen covered with plastic pieces. I know that it was not good but what is it that broke? The timing gears I took off were not of nylon teeth. What else could it be?
