Cant find the timing mark after timing belt was cut, 1991 BMW 318i E36

On any engine you should find timing marks on the end of camshaft which line up with Mark on the crankshaft. TDC is top dead center which is when the first most piston is on it's compression stroke. When you move the crank to TDC the firstmost or number one piston will be on the compression stroke. Turning the camshaft to align with the timing mark on crankshaft will put the engine in proper valve timing.

Hi RObert:
I suggest visit this links with interesting information about this job:
- E36-Belt-Replacement/E36-Belt-Replacement

You have to find your belt tensioner, pop the cover off of it, hook a socket and ratchet to it and move it to release the tension off of the belt. While you are holding the belt tensioner, you can slip the belt off of one of the pulleys and then release the tensioner.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

There are 2 engines used on the 318i. One has a chain the other a belt. The M40B18(1990-1993) uses a cam belt and the M43B18(1993-1998) a chain.
