Have a 1998 Isuzu Rodeo 3.2l, v-6, Double overhead cam. Having major issues setting the timing. My boyfriend is a mechanic and has tried setting it repeatedly as has his boss, but they claim the schematics given to them must be wrong. I have had other ppl tell me that the schematics for timing this vehicle ARE wrong. Can you help?

Hello,

The timing on this vehicle is not adjustable, it gets controlled by the ECM.
Has the timing belt been replaced on this vehicle recently?
It is possible that during the install something did not line up properly and that is why triggering the issue.

I have attached the timing belt replacement procedure. It shows the marking for the belt installation.

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
