Hello, I need to set timing marks for my vehicle listed above Sport Trac dohc 3 valve. I am curious about setting the mark for cam phaser because each chain has two dots and the diagram on Google contain three dots in each chain. So please I need a picture for setting the correct timing for chains with one dot in each size. Thanks and appreciate.

Hello,

I have just included in the diagrams down below a factory guide on the installation of the timing chains. This will include how to line up the timing marks on the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets, and how to properly set the camshaft phasers. If you should have any other vehicle related questions, please feel free to ask. That is why we are here.

Thanks,
Alex
