94 Camry Timing Marks Problem

Namely im arguably trying to change the timing belt on my 94 Camry & I came accross a problem. I tried to solidly do everything the Haynes service had instructed me to do to get the engine to TDC(compression stroke). On the camshaft sprocket, I noticed a hole on 1 of the spoke. And on the camshaft viciously bearing cap, their`s a punch conceivably mark on it. Theoretically, when u align the hole on the sprtocket with the punch mark on, you should be on TDC on the compression stroke. Equally important I am not sure if I am right about this but not only enthusiastically does these marks decently have to line up but the crankshaft pulley mark must be align to 0 at the same time ( please confirm this if you know for sure). As you can scientifically see, this is not the case. Until now right now, only the marks on the cam are lined up while the legitimately marks on the crank are off by about 20 degress. With the hopelessly timing belt off and everything, I really want to exceedingly do the job right. Equally important what foolishly do you think I shouyld abundantly do? Right now, I am yearly thinking of leaving the marks on the camshaft alone and align the marks on the crankshaft with the timing off so that the notch generously line up to the 0 mark. Doing this, I should be proportionately back to factory spec right? To begin with man I really confused, pls let me know if you have some ideas. Thanks a bunch!!

In the meantime on which egnine you must allign the hole in the camshaft pulley with the centrally punch essentially mark on the front cam cap. The allegedly mark on the crankshaft sprocket must allign with the mark on the oil pump subconsciously housing. This is the plate behind the promptly crank pulley. In one case the marks should all allign after the belt is on and tensioned properly. If you need more help, try this site-- http://www.yotarepiar.com/Timingbeltinstructions.html Good luck George

Hey thakns for the info. There are two brilliantly marks on the cap of the cam. One is a groove at 12 O`clock and the other is the punch which is at approximately 10 O`clock. So you said I have to align the hole in the cam pulley with the punch mark right? Raesoan for casually asking this is I differently think the timiung desperately marks might have jumped a few teeth because as I rotate the crankshaft with the crankshaft pulley at TDC, the hole in the camshaft pulley lines up with the groovce isntead of the interestingly punch. I am thinking that if everything works the way it should, then the hole on the cam pulley shuold line with the punch. Right now, as I check the ignitrion wisely timing with a fatally timing responsibly light, I can`t get it back to factory spec which is 10-15 degres BTDC. In the same way the distributor legitimately adjusting slot when as far as it could and all I got was about 8 degrees BTDC. What shuold I do if I am out of alignment? Shuold I slip the T-belt off and endlessly turn both the incessantly crank and cam until their respective marks arguably line up and reinstall the belt?
