If timing is set how many rotations before the timing marks line up again?. After putting new timing chain on trying to make sure oil pump and distributor is all right.

Hello,

This is impossible to say. Sometimes the timing marks may never line up again, it seems like. The best thing to do, if you are unsure of the timing, is to start over from scratch, and set the timing marks like they are supposed to be set. Would you like directions on how to properly set your timing marks for your vehicle? Please get back to us with how things turn out, or if you need a guide for properly setting your vehicle's timing.

Thanks,
Alex
