Hi,

The camshaft pulley marks of my volvo 960 (1995 model) have been tampered with by a previous mechanic with two-three additional marks on it; hence, I am unable to find the original markings on it. The cam pulley has already been removed from the cam and there is no dual pin in it, there is an adjustment on it. I wanted to know the exact position of the pulley. Kindly let me know if there is any other alternative to set the timing mark to its original position. Can you post me a diagram of camshaft pulley with original markings on it please?

You need a special locking tool to install at rear cams to lock the cams in place so you can align the cam sprockets to there proper marks.
