What's there to be worried about at this point ? Just take your time and follow page 71 and 72 closely in the manual. Just make sure your marks on the gears are all lined up with the ones on the belt, and then set the tensioner right.

Re: Aq131A Video Please Help

not worried about putting it back together, worried about the timing actually being off... ive basically tried / replaced eveythin to get this thing going past 12 mph... ive nailed it down to this problem... and it seem like theres nothing else engine wise that could be bad...
