My timing belt broke on my 1994 Plymouth Voyager. I replaced the belt but the timing is off. How do I set the timing back to start the Van Please assist thank you.
Contact the parts store that sold you the timing belt and they should be able to give you the timing settings on your van.
You know if you are going to keep doing major work on your van it would be worth your while to purchase a Chilton's book that is specific for your van.

It
is recommended because if you have to change the water pump belt change
since you have to remove it and you save work in the future as we
recommend changing the camshaft seals and crankshaft as it saves time
and money
If you have the harmonic balancer still attached you can align the timing marks with 0 degree to get the main block aligned. With the head removed you can turn the cam shaft till the number 1 valves are both closed and the number 3 exhaust valve is open. Take the time to inspect the valves as well. This vehicle did not come with no contact valves so when the belt broke it is possible the valves made contact with a piston and bent. I highly recommend you get the Haynes Repair manual on this vehicle from the local auto parts store as it has detailed instructions on how to get back to TDC if this happens. It also has Pictures on this. Because this belt goes around 3 timing marks aligning those after you have the pistons at TDC if you align the timing marks on the different sprockets/pullies the timing for teh valves will be correct.
I had the same thing happen, No, I was told this is not one of the engines that allows the piston to contact the valves. I replaced the timing belt 2 years ago and had no valve problems.
r u needing the belt diagram for the power steering,alternator,etc etc...? if so email me at([email protected]) and i can send u a pic of the diagram i have. i have a 1994 plymouth voyager 3.3l just so u know.
