Don't know what vehicle you are talking about but with most vehicles if the timing chain jumped you won't get out of your driveway. With the timing cover off, most chains and gears have marks stamped into them that should line up when the number 1 piston is at Top Dead Center.

How do you fix the problem of jumped timing with out timing light?
Your question is too vague usually when someone says that their engine has jumped time that means that the timing chain has jumped on the timing sprockets. If that is the case you would need to change them. If the distributor is out of time to do it right you would need to have a timing light. You would need a repair manual for the specifications to fix both of them.
