HI, I have to guess by your question that you want to know what to use to adjust your timing. After you set up your car to check and adjust your timing if you need to, you need only loosen the two screws/bolts on the distributor flange so the top of the distributor is just barely loose and you can either advance or retard your ignition spark to the specified mark on the front of the engine at the pulley. If you need more help, I hope to se you back here. Good luck. Steve H.
It depends if it is an OHV(pushrod motor) or a s.o.h.c./d.o.h.c. motor. Ohv engines can have a timing chain set that allow for adjustment, to be installed. You can also install crank keyways that adjust the timing by moving the crank cam gear the required degree/s. Overhead cam engines can have cam gears installed that allow for cam adjustments.
by crank cam and fuel pump and cylinder no6 valve position
cam timing marks are on the timing gears inside the timing case cover the crank timing gears are located on the harmonic balance (big pulley wheel at bottom of engine on front of crank)
Yes accuauly its the cam that does control valve timeing.. on the lobes of the cam .
the cam should be at 6:00 and the crank at 12:00
the timing marks are on the cam and crank gears in the timing case.
If you are getting a code about cam/crank misalignment, you most likely have a problem with the timing belt. There is either a part failure or it is miss installed.Niether the cam or crank sensors have any adjustments.If you are getting a code about cam/crank misalignment, you most likely have a problem with the timing belt.

i have a mazda 1994 626 v6 24 valve car and i think the timing belt just broke where are all the timing marks crank shaft and cams?
A timing belt links the crank shaft to the cam shaft(s) mechanically, to keep the cam(s) turning at the same rate as the crank, at a given, possibly variable ratio. that allows the right valves to be open at the right time during each stroke made by a piston. piston connects to crank, crank to cam, cam to valve. Make sense? No it doesn't make sense, even though linked together by the timing belt the camshaft and crankshaft to not turn at the same speed, just look at the size of the camshaft pulley and the crankshaft pulley as they are different sizes the speeds are different!
Generally, for most single cam engines, there is a dot or mark on the cam sprocket and a similar mark on the crank sprocket. Point them at each other. the timing marks on the crank and cam sprockets must be lined up with marks on the timing chain in an overhead cam engine
ignition timing or cam timing. see my profile for link. answers both.
bad timing,worn cam,valve adjustment
