The crankshaft itself has no marks, the crankshaft pulley has one, it's white color. The same is true for the camshaft, it has no marks. But the camshaft pulley has a hole in it. That hole must alighed with the mark behind the pulley and the crankshaft should alighed with its own mark and the camshaft in the same time.
It depends on what options the car is equipped with. Does it have Air Conditioning? Does it have Power Steering? If it has neither, then the belt runs around the crankshaft pulley, water pump, and alternator. Power steering adds another groove to the crankshaft pulley, and another pulley on the pump itself. Same with Air Conditioning.
its on the front of the motor by the crank shaft pulley or it could be on the back in the same spot
The same place on any motor, the crankshaft is in the bottom of the engine. It is what the bottom large pulley is attached to and runs back to the transmission.
The basic engine itself is the same L-series used in the 600, however you will need to use the 600's gearbox (because of different ratios) and diesel pump and injectors. Other than that, it should be a straight swap.
The variable reluctance sensor is the same as the crankshaft sensor on the 92 Ranger. It is on the front of the engine beside the crankshaft pulley.
The crankshaft position sensor must be behind the timing belt cover next to the crankshaft and behind the crankshaft pulley. The camshaft position sensor is again under the timing belt cover next to the camshaft and behind and the camshaft pulley. Is it the same place in 2000 Camry 4Cyl? Do you have pictures of the location? Hard or easy to replace, and what tools do I need? Thanks alot
I have a 1990 geo with the same problem. What is wrong with mine is the pulley is actually a two part pulley ( an inner ring and outer ring) there is a rubber bushing that connects the two or in other words takes up the space between the two. That rubber bushing is most likely worn out. It could also a sheared key. The pulley and crankshaft both have a key way cut in them. I would say it is the rubber bushing.

The piston has the same function whether diesel or petrol. The piston is forced down the cylinder when the petrol mixture ignites and expands. That in turn presses on the connecting rod which in turn pushes on the crankshaft. The crankshaft changes the up and down movement of the piston into a rotational movement which makes the car go.
You'll need to pull the passenger front wheel, remove the wheel well cover. This will expose the damper pulley on the crankshaft. Remove damper pulley, remove plastic engine cover. Look inside you will see the sensor. Be sure if you replace it to install the new one exactly the same as the old one was.
It's hard to prove fault in these cases but the timing belt change requires removing the crankshaft pulley. So the mechanic would have had to have at least seen its condition. More likely, he damaged the pulley in the process of replacing the timing belt. Maybe he used an impact wrench when he reinstalled it and the key wasn't aligned correctly?
Yes they are the same.
