There's a 'cut' in the balancer...whi ch is the timing mark. The timing tape goes on the left side. When you roll the engine clockwise from zero to the end of the tape...then you've gone 25 degrees after top dead centre.

I grind and painted a white groove left side, like the original groove on the right side of the balancer

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Thanks, I forgot to mention while I had the Balancer off during the timing chain replacement, I clean, Painted black the did the white timing groove color, and finally spray painted a clear coat over everything.

Thank you Jesus.

Its running.

You guys are awesome.

I was iming the cam at 25b4 Tdc instead of 25 aftc.

I did check cylinder#1 to make sure I was on compression and it was.
once I reset the cam sensor correctly the car fired right Up.

I really appreciate all the time you guys spent to me with issue.
THIS was a great leaning experience.

Look forward to hearing from me shortly with something else.

Thanks again Mr. Steve. And everyone who helped.
Thanks Keith who called and kept me encouraged.

With all the problems he has encountered trying to get it to run right in the past, I suspect he is one of the best troubleshooter s around!
