It is not like timing a single cam engine or even a twin cam engine There are 4 cams turned by 2 pulleys and with the differences in gear ratios it is more complicated than checking marks to see if they are lined up once the timing has been disturbed. shawn
Good info. My knowledge on this is definitely limited to doing a timing belt change when the timing is still correct.
