there should be a dot or line cut in each gear. the cam gear mark should be at the six o'clock position (all the way down) and the crank mark at the 12 o'clock(all the way up). line them up and you should have it made. spin the crank just to be sure the marks mesh correctly

What should the timing be set at after you have replaced the timing chain on a 1994 Chevy s10 2.2 liter engine?

Put the crank shaft at TDC. There is a dot on one of the crank gear teeth. It should be pointing toward the cam gear. Put the cam gear on without the chain. Turn the cam until the hole in the cam gear is pointing toward the crank. In other words, the hole in the cam gear and the dot on the crank gear should be in line. Then simply remove cam gear and apply the chain. The computer does the fine timing. Nothing to adjust.

Crank gear dot should point stright up / 12o clock with #1 pistion at TDC.all the way up at the top of #1 cylinder.The cam gear dot should point stright down At 6o clock. That will make both dots stright over top of each other. Then the crank and cam will be in time.

How do you set timing after it has moved timing chain broke?

Get a new timing set (crank gear, cam gear, chain) Install crank gear and turn crank so mark on gear is straight up. Loosely install cam gear, turn so mark on gear is straight down. Remove distributor cap, verify rotor is pointing at #1 plug wire. #1 is drivers side front cylinder. If rotor is 180 degrees out (pointing at #6 wire rather than #1) turn crank one full turn clockwise to bring rotor to #1. Marks on both gears should now be directly adjacent to each other, Crank mark up, cam mark down. Gently remove cam gear so as not to rotate cam. Install chain around crank and cam gear, being sure to maintain mark orientation. Bolt cam gear back in place. Check alignment of timing marks, if they are not right remove cam gear and try again. Torque to spec. Your engine is now at TDC #1 on compression stroke. Should fire right up.

How do you set the timing marks on 93 geo tracker crank shaft and cam gear?

For the crank shaft, there is a mark on the oil pump gear which should be straight up, same as the key way if you want to go by that. On the cam the pulley has a mark that should be pointing straight up toward the "V" in the cover behind the pulley. Hope this helps.
