There should be punched marks on the cam sprockets which need to be lined up with factory punched marks on the rear timing belt cover, immediately behind and just above the sprocket. Line those 2 gears up and bring crank shaft damper to 0 degrees top dead center according to first mark on dampers, left side as you face the motor check to see if your distributor rotor is facing the number one terminal if not complete full rotation because motor is on exhaust stroke.

How do you set cam timing on 98 dodge neon twin cam motor?

the timing marks on the cam sprockets need to lined up. I would not attempt this repair if you don't know what you're doing. If the timing is off and you rotate the engine, you can cause severe damage to your valves.

It has a timing chain. A MAIN timing chain runs around the twin over head cams and crankshaft and a SECONDARY chain (balance shaft chain) runs off the crankshaft to turn the water pump. Both have timing marks and the balance shaft chain runs behind the timing chain.

First put the #1 piston all the way up in the cyl.Make sure your crank shaft timing mark is lined up.There's another timing mark on the left side as you look at the crank shaft on the other gear(intermeteate gear).It too must be lined up. Put your cam gears timing marks together with all the valves closed on #1 cyl.

How do you align the timing marks for a 4-cylinder 2000 leganza?

After you take the front timing cover off and get the old timing belt off, there are 3 notches on the rear timing belt cover. I'm sure it is a twin overhead cam system, so you will have to read the sprockets on both cams. There are what looks like lines on both. On the left cam, you will want to to line it up with the intake manifold. There should be a line mark in between the words. Line it up with the left notch on top of the timing cover. One the right cam, you will have both intake manifold and exhaust manifold lines. Use the mark for the exhaust manifold, and line it up with the right side notch. Now you will have to look at the timing sprocket for the crankshaft. It appears to look like just a bar mark on the edge of the sprocket. Line that up with the notch on the bottom. You will have to use a hex wrench to adjust the belt tension on the tensioner pulley to get the belt on. Be sure not to let any of the sprockets move while you put the belt on or you will have to do the process over again.
