Presto! Make sure you set it right before you take the old one off, this engine can be damaged by rotating the crank without the chain....unless the heads are off!

If you need to ask this one leave the engine repair to a pro...If you don't do it right you may as well buy a new one...I do not know were in the process you are!If you line up the marks as I said, BEFORE the chain comes off....You will be at TDC...
