yesterday i changed the water pump on my girlfriends 2001 dodge stratus 2.4L 4cyl
bought a special puller to remove crank pulley
i must have knocked the cams out car runs rough now
pulled it back apart & noticed the marks on the cams don't line up right
there is a small arrow on the crank gear, a large mark on the cam & directly across on the other side of the gear there is a small mark
can someone tell me how to get these marks all lined up & where to line up the crank
she couldn't afford to take it to the dealer if I knew it was this bad i wouldn't have tried to do it for her
now i'm in the dog house (help)
