Timing marks, 1993 940 Wagon, Non turbo

Post by int-fireball »

Hi I am just replacing the head gasket on a car I purchased with a blown headgasket.
Looking ahead, I was trying to find out where the intermediate shaft timing marks are, there is a mark on the pulley, but I am unsure what to line it up to.
The crank and cam shafts are no problem.
The book i have is not very clear.
Thanks Richard

Thanks for the diagram, I have now timed the car aok.
Do you know if the intermediate shaft turns a balance shaft? or is it just there to complete the timing belt setup, as this shaft is not needed to turn the Distributor anymore.

Honesty being the best policy - I don't know what it does now. All my literature says the timing marks on the intermediate shaft are not critical.

I'm glad it all worked out OK.
