Default Timing, Please help!!!

Hi,

I have a 1997 Caravan and I really need help timing it!

My neighbor said that the exhaust cam sould be a tooth back, that doesn't work.
The book says that it should be the same, that doesn't work.

It's running really rough right now, please help!

Thanks!

if the cam\s are out one tooth the valves will be opening and closeing at the wrong time and the engine will run rough
look for the marks on the gears when it's together before the covers are back on turn the crankshaft bolt with a socket 1 full turn then double check your marks
its a pain to have to pull it apart again if your off
