Yes. What line is it supposed to be at?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't the timing marks on the cam shafts line up along with the notch on the crank pulley at 0 (TDC)
It sounds like he's talking about cam/valve timing, not ignition timing. If so then I believe what Jim said is correct.
I agree with the others that you should pull the upper and lower timing covers and confirm your timing marks. Once you are sure about the mechanical timing being ok then put it all back together and set your base ignition timing to 5* BTDC.
Left to right in the picture:
0 (T) - 5 - 10 - 15 BTDC
Yeah, my notch on the crank puley is on the 10 btdc line with everything straight up. So, I guess I'll be re-doing my timing belt! Fuh, I just bought new stuff like 6 months ago. DSM's suck...er...I guess I'm the one who did the timing belt.
If the mark is on that 10*BTDC, things CAN't be straight up - like cam marks, dowel marks et. al.Yeah, my notch on the crank puley is on the 10 btdc line with everything straight up
urs looks way off you better check ## valvs but u might have gotten lucky
ok in that pic of his harmonic balancer do you see the little notch its not on any mark at least thats what it looks like to me all the timming marks have to lined up if you put that little notch on tdc your two cams should line up and dowls will be vertical
