Help replaced l series timing belt car wont start
the other day my timing belt went in the l series so we replaced that but the car wont start pretty sure we did the timing belt properly
1.Insure the Flywheel is at exactly 0 Degreees
2. Check that the Left Hand Cam mark lines up with the top mark. (read Passengers side)
3. Check that the Right Hand Cam Mark lines up with the bottom mark. (read Drivers Side)
4. Rotate the engine by hand a couple of times to make sure you have done it right.
but i think the distributor mite be out so how do i line correct it , or could it be something else ??
cheers

Hey mate,
Did you line the indicator on the bellhousing up with the middle of the three marks on the flywheel or at 0 degrees, TDC? Because you need to do the latter.
Did you start with both marks on the cam pulleys facing up and aftering installing the passengers side belt, rotate the crank one full turn? At this point the passenger side belt should be facing down, while the drivers side should be facing up (and the indicator on the bellhousing still in line with the middle of the three marks of course).
