I put in a new motor that was fully rebuilt and it's throwing the p1302 & 1301 codes. The cam shafts were ground and polished during this. I put in new plugs but they didn't have iridium plugs so I got the best NKG plugs I could get. Could this be my problem? There is a noticeable tick to the motor but I was assured this would go away after I get a few miles on it.

Any insight to this?

Here is the rebuild list:
- New pistons
- New piston rings
- New rod bearings
- New main bearings
- New wrist pin bushings
- New oil pump
- New thrust bearings
- New head bolts
- New rear main seal
- New valve guides
- New valve seals
- New frost plugs
- New lifters.
- New oil pump


Engine and head cleaned

- Surfaces renewed by milling
- Blocks bored and honed
- New pin bushings installed
- Crank shaft ground and polished
- Cylinder heads pressure tested
- Cam lines checked
- Heads checked for thickness
- 3-Angel valve grind

Thanks

I am bumping this because I am curious as to what happened too.

Anyway , Good to see you got it all back together. I will have to come by and see it sometime soon. Hope you get this problem solved

P1301 Misfire level causing emissions increase
P1302 Misfire level causing catalyst system damage

Timing off? Clogged injector? Coil pack or plug issue? Could be many things, but those are good places to start.

The tick is suspect. My Elise didn't do it after a radical head job.
