2G Crank Timing Correct?

[Artago]

Cam gears are in line. Is the crank correct or am I a tooth off? Not sure if the mark goes at the front or end of the notch.

Have you turned the engine by hand a few times to see if it gets any better?

Turned 10 times. Waited 10 minutes. Turned 10 times again. Waited 24 hours. Turned again. Cranked. Checked.

Is that the correct position for the crank? or am I off?

If you're being picky and have it all pulled apart you could probably rotate it CW another 1/8" but, then again, it could just be the angle of the photo too. Here's the best photo I could find of mine before I pulled off the sprocket to do my BS belt a few years ago.

Thank you!

It's aligned. You may be slightly off lining up due to surfacing of the block or head, or using a different thickness gasket, which you'll only be able to make up for with adjustable cam gears. You can only change it by one tooth with the stock non-adjustable cam gears/crank sprocket, you cannot adjust it increments of a tooth.

If it's off slightly, would that be a big problem that would cause the engine to run like crap? I'm not looking to race this car, I just need it to run.

You said 10 times but the actual line up is only 6 rotations to make sure ALL timing marks line up, so every 6 rotations is when its best to check all markings from cams to crank,

Looks good to me this all can be slightly adjusted with the CAS , timing light and DSM link

GOOD LUCK

I don't have an adjustable CAS. Can I still adjust it using DSMlink?

 

[gofer]

No. Mechanical timing is what it is if you're running a '95-'99 CAS, it should be 5* BTDC if you check it with a timing light when you ground the timing connector through the "Misc" tab.

Maybe I posted in the other thread or something.

Youre timing mark is good. If it was off a tooth the crank trigger plate wouldnt even be close to lining up.

So youre fine. Make sure your tensioner depth is correct.

if it was off a tooth, it would be wayyyyy off.
