Hey, got a 93 eagle talon ESI, just lost my engine b/c of timing belt breakage...valves are bent.. what year engine is a simple swap for me, she's non-turbo... which years are compatible???? thks...Sheldon

it is an interference engine which means that when the belt breaks you will need new valves as the stems will be bent
So lots of money and heart ache by replacing the belt and have it done by a professional shop so that the valves are not bent as you try turning the engine over with the belt off

check that you have reconnected all the vacuum hoses correctly. Check the operation of the PCV valve ( connected right way round). Check that all the wires have been reconnected tightly.

i have fitted a new thermostat heat working fine. but temperature gauge not working

check your pcv valve it might be bad

check the timming belt. it sounds like you have broken the timming belt remove the belt cover and make sure that the camshafts are turning when you are cranking the engine, if the belt has broken you will most likly have to remove the cylinder head and replace all the valves, when this engine brakes the timming belt the valves will hit the top of the pistons and bend the valves...good luck

Timing Belt
AC/PS Belt
Alternator Belt
Should be a total of 3, AC and PS are on one and the Alt. should be a separate one.

It sure sounds like one of the timing marks was not lined up when you installed the belt. Did the belt break while the engine was running? If so then it is possible that one or more valves is bent and binding on a piston. Here is a picture of the tiing marks, You have to line up 4 different marks.

Sounds like a vacuum problem, This is a fairly common problem right after servicing your car. Sometimes mechanics forget to re-plug your vacuum tube on your engine and you get the stalling unless you give it more gas. Just take it back to your mechanic. It's a real simple solution. He looks under the hood. He sees a loose tube. He plugs it in and off you go.

If it was trying to start but just didn't turn over, it could be the same thing that just happened to me which left me stranded on the side of the road as well. I got some carb and choke cleaner and took off the throttle position sensor and sprayed it until it was free from the gunk buildup. I had a hard time getting one of the two bolts out so you may also have to get some sort of anti-seize spray to get them out.

is it an esi or tsi? if esi the swap is damn near impossible because the 4g63 sits reverse to the 420a and the mounts would have to be fabricated and welded on.... its a long **** process....
