Hi,

I attached the torque specifications and the timing mark locations below. Take a look at them and let me know if that is what you needed.

Once you release the tensioner on the belt, double check the marks to make sure nothing moved. Also, since this is an interference engine, I recommend turning the engine by hand several rotations to confirm there is no internal contact between the piston tops and the valves. If you feel resistance, don't force it.

If you need additional information, let me know that as well.

Take care,

joe

Hi,

No, I didn't see that info. However, I attached a pic below showing how they are aligned. Note: There are colored links on the chain that will align with the marks.

Take a look at the picture and let me know if that is what you needed.

Take care,

Joe
