Help!  I took my perfectly running van and messed up the basic timing.  What
marks do you use to align the cam ?
I tried to align it with the v mark inscribed on the case near/behind the
tensioner pulley using the dot on the sprocket and again using the I/O mark.
I have the crank @ #1 TDC, and the distributor pointed to # 1.  The best I
could do with all my experimenting was a flame thrower with out getting it
to start.  The Haynes Jetta book doesn't show our head/block.  I'm going
nut, we are suppose to leave on a trip tomorrow.  Any help please write asap
or call me collect if you know for sure at 815-784-3476.
Thanks,
Larry
ps. I do like the conversion, we have 13,500 miles on it.
