The camshafts are marked on both ends, as shown here:

On a 1995 Mercedes-Benz C220, the timing marks for the camshaft and crankshaft are located as follows: The crankshaft timing mark is typically found on the harmonic balancer or the crankshaft pulley, aligned with a reference point on the engine block. For the camshaft, the timing marks are usually located on the camshaft sprocket, where they should align with a specific notch or marker on the cylinder head. It's crucial to ensure that both marks are aligned correctly during timing belt or chain installation to maintain proper engine timing.
To set the timing marks on a 1988 Mercedes-Benz 190E, first, align the crankshaft pulley mark with the TDC (Top Dead Center) mark on the timing cover. For the camshaft, the timing mark should align with the mark on the rear timing cover. Ensure the camshaft is positioned correctly with the lobes facing upwards on the #1 cylinder. Always refer to the specific service manual for detailed procedures and specifications.
My timing belt slipped on my 1990 tyota 4runner 3.0. The crankshaft mark and camshaft marks do not align. Should i keep the crankshaft aligned and then align the camshaft marks?.
The crankshaft itself has no marks, the crankshaft pulley has one, it's white color. The same is true for the camshaft, it has no marks. But the camshaft pulley has a hole in it. That hole must alighed with the mark behind the pulley and the crankshaft should alighed with its own mark and the camshaft in the same time.
The timing sequence for a 1997 GMC Suburban 1500, equipped with a 5.7L V8 engine, typically involves aligning the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft. The crankshaft should be set to the Top Dead Center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder number one. The timing chain or belt should then be positioned according to the manufacturer's specifications, ensuring the timing gears mesh correctly. It's essential to follow the service manual for precise timing adjustments and specifications.
For a Renault Megane 2.0 8-valve engine, the timing marks are typically located on the crankshaft pulley, camshaft, and sometimes an auxiliary belt cover. When aligning the timing marks, the crankshaft should be positioned at TDC (top dead center) for cylinder one, with the camshaft marks aligned accordingly. It’s crucial to ensure that the timing belt is installed correctly to maintain proper engine synchronization and avoid potential damage. Always refer to the specific service manual for your vehicle to verify the exact positioning and procedures.
The camshaft turns at half the speed of the crankshaft. If you count the gears, you should find that there are twice as many on the camshaft. If you line up the marks at TDC, then turn the crankshaft 360 Degrees, you should find that the camshaft has turned 180 degrees. So, every time the crankshaft turns back around to TDC, the camshaft will turn 180 degrees and if that's what your're seeing, then everything is normal.
I changed only the camshaft position sensor on my 2000 Kia Sportage. So I don't think so.
Noteheads should be positioned on the staff so that they are centered between the lines, with the center of the notehead directly on the line or in the space between the lines. This ensures that the note is placed correctly on the staff.
The timing marks are dots on the ends of the camshaft and crankshaft. They are on the sprocket ends where the timing belt or chain connects. The dots should be pointing towards each other for proper setting. The cam dot should be pointing down and the crankshaft dot pointing up. The dots or marks can only be viewed when the timing chain cover is removed. hope this helps...
The mark on the camshaft should be aligned with the mark on the crankshaft.
The dot on crankshaft at 12 o'clock and dot on cam gear at 6 o'clock the centerline of crankshaft, dots on gears, and centerline of camshaft should all be inline.
