I have a 96 Dodge Intrepid with a 3.5L DOHC! A water pump was put on the guy got the timing marks all off! Since it is distributorless, how do I go about putting the marks back into place?

You're going to have to tear it all apart again to time the belt correctly and you should start praying that you don't have a ton of bent valves because this is an interference engine.

I have never timed a distributorless ignition! my problem is I need to know how to put the marks were they are supposed to be!
