the timing mark is on the pullie itself its a small notch .... to get to your timing belt you have to remove the belts, motor mount, and the pullies, then remove the plastic cover then you can access your timing belt .... it looks worse than it really it
behind the crank shaft pully and the timing cover and then another pully is there two bolt hold it on
I need to see a photo pitchure of the timing alighnment marks,for the crank and cam shaft alighnment for a 2001 Mitsubishi mirage 1.8 liter engine
It balances the vibrations from the pistons...
Check the crank shaft pulley
It's behind the timing belt cover on top of the crank pulley.
It is on the front of the crank shaft and under the timing belt cover. You have to remove the crank pulley and all the belts and then the lower timing cover. It is not a job for a beginner.from : http://repairpal.com/crankshaft-sensor-569
Timing belt crank sprocket
on the harmonic balancer, at crank shaft
most crank sensors are for engine timing with the cam shaft, the distributor on at least 97' dodge and newer controls fuel timing.
you set timing by the marks on the cam shaft and the crank shaft. they should point at together to make it run right.
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.
