I have a 93 es300 and I replaced the head gasket but now the car wont start it turns but wont start and the #4 cylinder floods coud this be caused by the cam sensor? And hoe should the timing marks be set on the camshafts because there are two sets of marks a diagram would be helpful or a very accurate description

If the cam sensor was bad, I would think all cylenders would flood due to no spark. Recheck the timing marks. I looked it up for you so you can double check your work. But to me, it sounds like there may be a timing problem.

Here is the diagram:

Let me know what you find and we'll go from there.

Thanks joe for your response and I double checked my marks and such but where can I find the diagrams for the camshaft timing marks that are located under the valve cover?

I believe the reference marks are for the cam. Do you have something different?
