you will need a timing locking pin set or you can use drill bits as makeshift locking pins.the crank timing pin locates into the flywheel in a hole on rear of engine under fuel filter.fuel pump timing pin fits when cutout in pulley is in 12.00 o clock position and the cam pulley needs to be locked in the 4.00 o clock position.once these are timed up a new belt and tensioner can be fitted.you can straighten and use the old pushrod again and readjust clearances
