Which are the MX-5 B6 engine camshaft specifications?

Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked by Alimba on September 30, 2021

I repair my car (mx5 mk1 B6 engine 1992) recently by swapping the cylinder head with another used one. After the operation, the car won’t run. Tries to start a combustion while you crank but stops and doesn’t continue in order for the engine to pick up some revs.

The new cylinder head comes from a mk2 B6 engine and on the head has a code of B660, I can’t find any info for this head on the internet.

However the only reason I can think of, that will cause the engine not to run after that is something different about the cam’s that new head wears.

I did check spark plugs – coil pack – leads – valve timing and all look normal.

So, does anyone know whether all 1.6 B6 engines wear the same cams?

One Answer

First thing would be to check the timing between the crank and the camshaft - it has been known to be 180 degrees out and this puts the crank position sensor "out" with respect to the cam.
