The best advice I can give you is to get the Haynes or Chilton's repair manual on your vehicle so you have step by step instructions and diagrams to follow. I say this because there are a lot of items that have to come off and go back in a specific order and you have to set the engine to #1 TDC and the manual will have instructions on how to do this. Failing to do so will cause your timing to be off and the engine to not run properly. The manual will also tell you and show you pictures of how to properly line the cam and crank shaft timing marks up so the timing is correct. The space available for a response is not sufficient to explain all of these steps.
