    IF I BRING CRANK TO TOP DEAD CENTER HOW DO I SET CAMS


    15) It is now necessary to turn the crankshaft pulley bolt clockwise to top dead center. BMW = "OT" There is a stamped mark on the lower timing case "OT" that you must match up with the same mark on the crankshaft pulley "OT". Do not match up the "OT" to "45 degrees V OT"






    Match up the timing marks shown here





    16) Install flywheel pin located in the transmission bellhousing. Installing the flywheel pin is only possible when both "OT" marks are in alignment on the crankshaft pulley






    .

    .

    .................

    .

    .

    .

    27) With oil lines removed note position of bank 1-4 intake and exhaust cam lobes. My fingers are pointing to the cam shaft lobes in the correct/current/locked position.





    28) Install special tool set to lock down all for cams. Tool is marked with camshaft number, i.e. bank 1-4 (passenger side) and 5-8 drivers side of the car. The intake cam is referred to as the E cam/bank and the exhaust cam is referred to as the A cam/bank.








    29) It will be necessary to use a shaved 27mm open ended wrench to gently turn each camshaft in order to lock the camshaft into the special tool.





    30) With flywheel pin installed, chain trestle tensioned, and all 4 camshafts locked, install special lock pin tool into left and right hand upper timing chain tensioners. Tensioners are between each camshaft.




    31) Assistance of another person recommended to counterhold camshaft in place with 27mm wrench. Remove bank 1-4 & 5-8 camshaft timing sensor plate and nut located on each intake cam with a 24mm wrench while holding camshaft in place, and in the locked position with a 27mm wrench. Set sensor plate aside in a careful place so that the plate doesn't get bent or distorted. Remember that "righty tighty and lefty loosey" does not apply to the camshaft bolts. Turing left = tighten bolt and turning right = loosen bolt. Loosen bank 1-4 & 5-8 exhaust camshaft sprocket bolt.

    32) With assistance of another person, removal of bank 1-4 & 5-8 camshaft sprocket is now possible. Start on bank 1-4 (right side) exhaust cam. Slowly remove main timing chain off of right intake sprocket. Remove chain and set aside.

Ok I know I messed up, I took my 2007 engine apart to change head gasket and all the seal. Well now I'm putting it back together and can't get it in time. All advise and input is wanted and needed

First, DO NOT start the engine if the mechanical timing is wrong! My next obvious suggestion is to get it to a good mechanic and get them to sort it out for you.
I'm assuming your refering to the Mechanical Timing? Mazda use an 'Interference' engine so read this all the way through BEFORE doing any work. An interference engine means the valves will hit the piston face if the mechanical timing is even slightly out. That is why you don't start your engine with the timing set wrong. It's a VERY expensive repair.
Start from scratch. Remove the chain from the CAMs and cable tie it to something on the top of the engine to stop it disappearing out of sight.
Turn the Crank to about 10 to 15 degrees past Top Dead Centre (TDC). This is to move the pistons away from the valves so you can set the Cam timing marks. Set the Cam marks first then turn the Crank BACK to TDC. As long as the chain marker on the crank sprocket is lined up correctly the Cam chain markers should be correct.
Once you have timed everything into place use a socket and ratchet to turn the Crank pulley bolt Clockwise 2 full rotations. The timing marks should return to the correct positions.

Getting to timing chain without tearing down engine 2000 dodge intrepid

I assume you're talking about the 2.7L V6. As you're probably aware (having had it apart before), the timing is properly set by aligning the colored links on the primary timing chain with the marks on the crank sprocket and cam sprockets. The only way I know of to see all these at the same time is to remove the timing cover, and you have to tear the engine apart to remove the timing cover.

I just put a timimg chain an water pump in a 2001 chrysler sebring 2.7 liter engine an it will back firer at start up an not run .no matter how many times i check timing marks everytime it seems to no

I just recently experienced the same problem. The timing is 180 degrees out. Unfortunately the only way to correct it is to take the engine apart again. Set the right hand camshaft to TDC by using the marks on the timing gear for that bank. The left will follow to the degree it can although you will have to manually hold the cam in position when you put the timing gear back on. Now you can remove the timing chain. The crank TDC indicator may not be right on but it will be close. Rotate the crank CW one revolution to the point the TDC marks are lined up. Now install the timing chain according to the instructions. The timing gears on the camshafts will only go on one way as the bolt holes are slightly off the extreme diameter of the gear. If you put the chain back on making sure that all the marks are proper, she'll fire on the second cylinder up. Not a fun job I know, but when everything works right, you do get a sense of satisfaction.

Should the car start without alternator,waterpump and belts.

when you replaced the cam gear did you make sure that the timing marks where in line? If so than yes you should be able to start the engine providing all of the components are installed (ie.) the timing cover,new front seal(recomend you do this),crankshaft balancer,intake manifold,valve covers, etc. you should not need to install the alternater,power steering pump,waterpump and other accessaries at this point.

Where to put the timing marks on a 96' nissan 2.4 liter

the timing chain tensioner is hydraulic and either out of adjustment or defective.  You need to remove the timing chain cover and reset the mechanical correlation between the crankshaft and the camshafts.  also the other ignition time marks are on the crankshaft harmonic balancer and the cam cover.  Do not crank the engine with the timing out of sequence or you'll destroy the engine.
