Good day buddies,

Am having a he'll of hard time trying to fix my dodge magnum. I was driving it and I had a knocking sound in my engine and checked n I found out it was d water pump which I changed. While I was changing I found out also that it has jumped timing. Have used the repair manual to set the timing but it's not starting. Can anyone with this experience n have crossed this issue please guide me on how to set d timing for it to start. This is my work vehicle. I need it on d road Asap. Thanks

Dodge Magnum 2.7 ltr Dohc

 

How did you determine it jumped time? It was running before the water pump was replaced?

 

Yes it was running before I took it to the mechanic workshop. While I was checking where the noise is from, the engine died and couldn't start again. When it was opened I checked if the markings of the timing if it was were it should be but all was off the markings.

I really need this car to be up n moving cos it takes all my working tools n others easily n keeps out issues of space.
