Re: 1998 ranger timing marks

I have done my SIL's '95 4 cyl a couple of times. Here's what I think:

The camshaft-to-crankshaft relationship is the only thing important, because the crankshaft sensor takes the place of the timing that was done on earlier models by the third gear wheel (i.e, the older engines had the distributor driven by that third gear wheel).

Tip: I always like to remove 4 spark plugs and turn the engine by hand, after mounting belt, .... just to make sure there is no interference. (That's being "anal", I know).
