Hello, I’m Pete from the Car Genius team at RepairPal. Timing alignment can be somewhat tricky on this model and may require some special tools to hold components in place like the camshaft(s). You want to make sure you have the correct timing alignment and installation procedure for this model to be able to install the timing components properly as well as align it properly to prevent damage to the engine itself. In some cases you can obtain the full timing component replacement and alignment instructions from a repair manual online or in some cases from a local parts store. You can also check out https://www.alldata.com/diy-us/en where you can find diagnosis, repair, wiring, and maintenance information for your model. They do charge a small fee but the fee itself is usually good for an extended period of time.
