Another timing belt question

Post by simpreza2 »

Im doing my girlfriends timing belt (1st timing belt change for me) and I messed up the positioning of the cyl and cams. I tool the belt off befoe taking the cam sprockets off to do the cam seals. So I rotated the cams with the crank in the same spot. How would I go about realigning everything?

Thanks

Just rotate the cams back to the timing marks. Very simple ;)
