To set the timing gears on a 4HE1T engine, first, ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder one. Align the timing marks on the camshaft and crankshaft gears; the marks should be in line with the designated reference points on the engine. After confirming the alignment, securely tighten the bolts and rotate the engine by hand to double-check the timing has not shifted. Always consult the specific service manual for torque specifications and detailed procedures.

To set the timing gears on an Isuzu 4HE1 engine, first ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder one. Align the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft gears; the marks should be perfectly aligned according to the manufacturer's specifications. Secure the timing belt or chain in place, then double-check the alignment before reassembling any components. Finally, rotate the engine by hand to confirm that everything is set correctly without interference.
Timing gears are set by removing the front timing cover and bringing the engine up to top dead center on the compression stroke of #1 cylinder. There are marks on the camshaft gear and the crankshaft gear which need to be lined up. This is a timing chain and gear set up. If you are asking to just adjust your timing, you need to hook up a timing light to #1 spark plug wire and have a mark on the harmonic balancer. To adjust timing, simply loosen the distributor and turn it slightly until proper timing is achieved.
