The Timing is computer controlled. You would need a computer with the Dodge factory interface and the connectors that hook it to your car to adjust the timing. If the timing belt has been changed and it was installed a tooth or two off it will need to be removed and installed correctly.

Ignition timing is controlled by the engine management computer and is not adjustable. Valve timing is set at a fixed position when the timing belt is replaced and not adjustable.

The tension on the timing belt won't loosen to be put back on and i dont know the timing mark.

These belt are a little difficult to do. They remain tight and you end up rolling the belt on to install. Once it is on and in place, then adjust a little tighter with the tensioner.

Tried to start my truck...everything seemed normal, but just before the engine kicked in, I heard a faint, muffled bump. I turned the ignition again...starter works fine and battery is strong; but no luck...

You may have a broken timing belt.
When they break, they turn over but it sounds a little different, it has an uneven sound like it has a free spot making it speed up and down as it turns over,
Somtimes they bend valves when they break,and gets expensive to fix. but you may be lucky since you wernt driving down the road. the only way to knopw for sure is to replace the belt and start it up. it should run smooth without a miss

How to adjust the timing on 4cyl '95 dodge dakota

unfortunately you do have to tear it all down, but it's not as bad as it sounds. the 4cyl is easy to work on. you don't have to put it all back together to find out if timing is correct. if you have a good fully charged battery just run the engine with only the timing belt attached. (of course be absolutley sure to keep tools, engine pars, and hands clear!)

put on the parking break and the trans in neutral

tear down to the timing belt

adjust to tdc (there is a hash mark on the cam gear)

remove or losen the idler pully

allign the timing gear and crank gear. there are marks on these from the factory install.

tighten idler pulley

run engine. it should be fairly obvious if it's too advanced or lagged when you give it some gas.
