I tried rotating the crankshaft several different times to make sure #1 cyl was TDC and still no luck. Camshaft and oil pump where aligned to marks each time as directed. My son will be home from Iraq on leave next week and I am in a bind? Am I missing something? FYI, belt broke while it was going down the road if it makes any difference. Thanks, Dan
