Why would the top timing marks on a 96 metro 4-cylinder be off 7 teeth in order for the car to run?

Just guessing but I would say someone worked on the engine and didn't get something right. Option 1 Timing Chain was replaced and the marks on the gears were not aligned correctly. Option 2 The distributor was replaced and not lined up correctly with the piston on the compression stroke instead of the exhaust stroke. Good Luck and Remember.

Can you tell me the timing marks on a 1989 ford probe 22L GL?
Timing marks? There is a timing mark on the main crankshaft pulley as well as marks on the timing belt cover to line it up with. There is also marks on the cam gear, with the #1 and that arrow being most important, as well as an arrow or other mark on the cylinder head to line it up with. All of these need to line up in order for the timing to be correct. Then the distributor can be moved left or right to fine tune the timing to spec.. -Shaun

What are the cam timing marks?
Hello Camshaft timing marks work in correspondance with the crankshaft timing marks, when setting the timing on your vehicle it is very important that the camshaft and crankshaft are set correctly, usually using pins, or locks to hold in position when fitting a new timing belt. This insures that the pistons and valves do not come in contact with each other when running and the inlet and exhaust valves open in the correct order. hope this helps. Colin.
