I can't see a cam sensor there. Looks like the fuel line is in the way. I wouldn't worry about it right now. Redo your timing and go from there.

actualy I should rephrase it a little. I have exhaust gasses in my coolant. Could be a BHG could be a cracked head.

Compression test it to be sure. New seals is what you want to order. Vavle stem seals, camshaft seals, headgasket.

Will do, but if I do have a good gasket... WTF is exhaust doing in my coolant?

I don't trust those coolant tester. What you could do is also leave the radiator cap off and crank the car. If coolant start shooting. BHG.

Hahah, well I can't help if you don't trust those testers. But there is always ALWAYS bubbles coming up no matter how much I flush the system.

I back flush the system so it gets rid of bubbles starting from the back of the engnine to the front of the radiator.

I am not talking about 1 or 2 bubbles, I mean the upper radiator hose would be full one moment then the next it seems that it is filled with air. BTW coolant has shot up before, but only when it first started up.

Since gas is always getting into the system, there is no pressure working for the water pump.
