A week ago my neighbor came to my house asking me to replace the timing belt for his 84' henna 325e. I've done this before on my e30 so it wasnt a problem for me to say yes. While i was getting the sprockets aligned i noticed the crankshaft sprocket wasn't marking up to the TDC, but the camshaft was. The weird thing is the car was running perfect before i put it on the stands and began to work. Now the belt is off and i want to do this by having to markings all correct.
So my question is how to get the markings correct. The T/O marking is more than 1/4 of a turn off. When i attempt to turn it, it locks up. I'm sure i need to move the camshaft but i don't want to fuck anything up without someone else's advise.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
