How to set the timeing on 91 geo storm

If you don't know what you are talking about you shouldn't answer how could it be your starter if the engine is cranking over but won't start da big red truck !!!

Double check crankshaft timing mark, on your lower timing cover has some timing marks - crankshaft should be on the 0 mark. Camshaft timing marks--intake camshaft mark set at 3 o'clock and exhaust camshaft mark set a 9 o'clock. These timing marks are critical for motor to run and start correctly. These timings marks can move while trying to install the timing belt. After, you confirm or reset timing and belt, you can confirm timing is correct by rotating the crankshaft twice. Your timing marks should be on right on timing marks discussed at the top of the page. If timing marks are off, start over with timing process.

For 1990 Geo Storm 2+2 1.6L MFI SOHC 4cyl the OBD Diagnostic Link Connector is located front seating area, passenger side, under dash, above kick panel, mounted rear of glove compartment.

It needs to be 32psi minimum. 10psi won't cut it.

You need a timing light. You hook it to the no.1 cylinder and it flashes when that cylinder sparks. Aim the light at the crank. There is a timing mark on the crank and on the motor. You turn the distributor till the marks line up.

sounds like you might have cracked the block

timing marks are on the crankshaft you will see a notch its set there and you will see a mark dead center on the block straight up at 12;00 set that at compression stroke and set the cam gear on the left even with the block the notch in that is also at 12;00 straight up

there is a small mark on the cam pully that must point strait down to the mark on the crank shaft timing pully. the mark on the crank pully is a bit hard to see but it is a low spot on the inside area. also lines up with the keyway grove in the pully.

this is a pretty simple one here is a diagram. Good Luck and contact if you need more help. Thanks for using FIX YA http://www.2carpros.com/car_repair_information/tec_info/1992/geo/storm/1992_geo_storm_timing_belt_diagram_marks.htm
