chain and sprocket. It's been a while since I have done any work like this, but I want to say it is located behind the water pump on most (if not all) engines. Its not actually a belt at all. Its more a roller link chain on a sprocket.

How do you set timing on a 97 2.3 Leiter ford ranger?

Line crank shaft pulley timing mark on tc mark on timing belt cover. Look at cam shaft timing belt sprocket and locate the small triangle (not diamond shape) located on the plate attached to the timing sprocket. Referencing the timing sprocket look approximately at 5:00 o'clock under the timing sprocket and locate the other small triangle. Line these 2 marks up. Put timing belt on. Make sure the cam shaft sprocket and crank shaft sprocket do not turn while installing the belt. The crank shaft pulley must be removed in order to get the timing belt on.
