Oh ok.. Bummer. Those crank pulleys can be a real pain to take off too. Might be the front main seal or edge of the timing cover. Typically the gaskets don't go bad

Re: Getting my feet wet...going turbo 6.0 w/Pics

14* on 4 PSI is really low timing. I don't even pull any timing out until around 5-6PSI. I'm on E85 but, 4 psi really is nothing. You should be in the 20's for sure. I think I was around 22 at 12psi....
