Hi Everyone,

Due to having an issue with my 1st cylinder misfiring on my BA XR6, I am working through a list of items, and would like to know where the VCT Solenoid is location on the engine.
I am fairly sure it's easily removed but I don't really know where to look.

Any help would be appreciated! :)

Thanks!

There are two of them and they are under the rocker cover.

Item number 27 x 2

From what I have just read in the WM it isn't just a simple unbolt and instal.
Have you made sure that it ISN'T the coils or plugs? They can have problems with the TPS as well.

Is the Rocker a hard thing to get off?
Probably have to remove the intake system and the throttle body and stuff yeah?

Sorry,

Checking back through some of my old posts.
Yeah, the plugs and coils have been replaced with brand newies. :)
It shouldn't tube the TPS because a power balance revealed the misfire exists in one cylinder, the S would just cause unstable idle, not a misfire? Right?
