Im looking for the timing marks for a 1987 ford ranger 2.3l 2wd can you help me i have no manuel and no money

What are trying to do, change the belt or just set the timing? The timing marks should be on the left side (drivers side) near the front pulley. There is a notch or line on the pulley and the scale is on the timing cover. If you are trying to change the timing belt, you have to remove the fan and water pump pulley, then crank pulley and the timing cover. If you are changing the belt, here's a helpfull hint loosen the tensioner bolts, one 13mm one 17mm, then pull or push on the belt to force the ternsioner back as far as you can and tighten the 13mm bolt. Now you can take the old belt off and put the new belt on with ease. You have to set the crank at zero, I think the key in the crankshaft is straight up at this point, there is a diamond shaped mark on one of the teeth of the pulley, that lug has to line up with the notch in plastic behind the pulley. At this point you want the arrow on the cam pulley to point to the mark on the inner cover (about 6 o'clock) and the rotor in the distributor should point to the "V" notch in the pick up coil assembly (about 6 o'clock). Good luck!
