I have a 92 4runner it pop the timeing belt I fixed it now when I try to start it I

~Miss Genevieve~

have to bottom the distrib? When I try to start it I have to bottom the distributor to the bolt and when it starts it sounds like it is being choked to death?















It is a v6 to start it off I put one new head on looking from the front it is the left side. For some dumb reason I did not change the right side head gasket. two weeks ago the right side head gasket went I changed it. When I put it back together I had the timeing belt to tight so I took it back apart and reset the belt it worked fine. I was driveing to the store and the timeing belt jumped off I guess so I redid it all again and now to start I have to turn the distributor(if looking from top all the way clockwise to even get to try and start) I have made sure it is at tdc 10 times and still nothin?















I did not use that tool I set the cams to the timeing mark that are there and yes it is the 3vz v6. How do I fix it please help.

must have the 3vze V6. sounds like you got the cam(s) clocked late. more than one tooth. did you use the alignment/tension-er tool when clocking the cams?































and what do you mean "i have to bottom the distributor"?































what caused you to replace the belt? maintenance or repair?































we need answers to those three questions first.































it's a non-interference engine so you're good there.































i'll be back......

EDIT;















yea i realized it's the v6. the four has a T-chain.































either ignition or cams are late. do a quick check that your on tdc compression stroke with the rotor pointing to the #1 plug hole on the cap. not tdc exhaust stroke.































since it has jumped before, did you replace the belt? once they jump they can jump again. new belt. also, once they are used, the are directional and is subject to being tossed if put back on in reverse rotation.































did you turn the crank by hand or wrench at least two full revolutions after cam alignment and recheck indexing?































you can't hurt anything here.
