There is a small "stud" that guides your Top Gear. Make sure this stud is straight UP. Make sure all studs, including the bottom gear, are straight up. Any timing marks to be straight up.

Where is the Wells Camshaft Position Sensor on a 2004 Suzuki Forenza?

Our "Check Engine" light recently came on and we took it to the dealer to have it diagnosed. They said it was the Camshaft Sensor which keeps the cams and pistons properly timed and in correct position. I'm not exactly sure where, but all they said was that it was an internal part and told us that some part of the engine would have to be taken apart to change it.

The cambelt connects the camshaft to the crankshaft, the belt drives the camshaft and keeps it in the correct timing (when the valves open/close in relation to the crankshaft angle.)

How do you set a timing chain on a 98 Saturn s1?

The timing chain on the SOHC motor is easy to set. First, before you remove the chain, rotate the crankshaft 90 degrees clockwise past TDC (top Dead Center) This lowers the pistons to the middle of the cylinder block so you don't damage any of the valves in the head. Proceed to remove the timing chain. When installing the new timing chain, rotate the camshaft so the mark on the cam gear is at the 12 0'clock position. You can use a 3/16 drill bit to line up the camshaft sprocket with the locating hole in the cylinder head to be sure the gear is in the correct position. Rotate the Crankshaft Counter-Clockwise back to TDC so the mark on the crank sprocket matches the timing mark cast into the block, be sure when installing the chain, all the slack of the chain in on the tensioner side.
