Car Is Acting Crazy!!!
 
ok, i just installed cc-305,lifters, springs, retainers,locks, and a cloyes true roller timng chain. after the install i got the rockers tightened just right, everything back to normal.

anyway,at idle in park the car has a lot of cam surge, the oil pressure jump up and down from like 40 to 45, car has a kinda grinding whistling noise coming from up front. when i put it in drive it idles at between 600 and 700, and sometimes it dies when im sitting in drive but not going anywhere.

i am confused please help me.

is it possible i mixed a vacuum line up?
can an exhaust lead be part of it, because i have one?

thank you

i just went to autozone and got the engine light scanned, found out it is the crankshaft position sensor, what the hell do i do now?

just popped the car up and played with the sensor. got that fixed, anyway when i did my cam swap i didnt use my factory dowel pin on my new cam. is it possible that the new pin on the new cam is too long and is grinding into my opti?

i have a metal on metal , or a metal on plastic scraping noise coming from my car.

It's a possibility.
