I’ve just gone through the timing set up you gave me and I think I know where I went wrong,I i turned and torqued the tensioner after I’d torqued the cam pulleys,it says on the guide to do it before

Is piston 1 at the cam belt end

Ok just pulled the cam plugs off again and it looks like the intake cam is a fair bit out,this picture is with the crank pin in.would that stop it starting being out that much,I don’t know how it’s moved when everything was locked in place

Ok thanks

Thinking about it the timing tool was in from start to finish so the cams remained in the same position from when it was running,I’ll get a set of the plugs you suggested and see if that makes a difference

Thanks for all your replies chaps

Also would the wrong plugs stop it starting

Ok I’ll have to pull the new seals out and get some more,if it was 180 out ,would there be any valve interference or not when cranking?

Here are the pics when I timed it,the horse shoe was sliding perfectly and the pin was in the crank

Thanks for the reply’s yes it has good compression ,the engine was running spot on last week,no issues at all,I decided to change it as it has high miles and couldn’t be verified when it was changed last.fuel pump is running fine it just doesn’t seem to want to fire.
