CAUTION: The following procedure can only be used when the camshaft sprockets HAVE NOT BEEN LOOSENED or removed from the camshafts. Refer to Camshaft Sprocket and Engine Timing in this Section, if sprocket(s) or camshaft(s) have been loosened or removed.

CAUTION: The 3.2/3.5L are NOT freewheeling engines. Therefore, care should be taken not to rotate the camshafts or crankshaft with the timing belt removed.

1. Disconnect negative cable from remote jumper terminal.
2. Remove upper radiator crossmember. Refer to body for procedure.
3. Disconnect fan module electrical connector.
4. Remove cooling fan module and accessory drive belts. Refer toCooling System for procedures.
5. Remove crankshaft damper and front timing belt covers. Refer to procedures this section.
6. Mark belt running direction, if timing belt is to be reused

   CAUTION: When aligning timing marks, always rotate engine by turning the crankshaft. Failure to do so will result in valve and/or piston damage.

7. Rotate engine clockwise until crankshaft mark aligns with the TDC mark on oil pump housing and the camshaft sprocket timing marks are between the marks on the rear covers Engine Timing Mark Alignment

   CAUTION: Align the camshaft sprockets between the marks on rear belt covers before timing belt removal or damage to valve and/or pistons could occur.

8. Using a ink or paint marker; mark the exact position of the camshaft sprocket timing mark relative to the two timing marks on the rear timing cover

   NOTE: When timing belt tensioner is removed from engine, always store in the vertical (plunger facing upward) position.

9. Remove the timing belt tensioner Timing Belt System and remove timing belt

If it would have been in time when you took it apart the cam gears would not have move from spring tension. You need to turn the crank til the timing XXXXX XXXXXnes up, look at cams.Are they 180 out?If so, rotate the crank one more revolution. Are the cams lined up now? They should be all three lined up. If they still arent lined up, this is going to get a WHOLE lot more fun. Let me know.

I know it will time out in 24 hours. I don't now about the other part. YES, the crank and both cams have to be lined up with the timing marks in the picture when doing a timing belt.
