    I have a couple of questions I have a 2003 Toyota Tacoma 3.4 L I was replacing the timing belt I made sure I lined up everything properly the crank and both cams before removing the belt installed new belt make sure the lines lined up with the cams and the crank after rotating the engine four times my marks on the belt were off from both cams and the crank but the cam sprocket’s and the crank were in line it’s just the belt marks were off will this pose a problem?

    don't worry, It will work. Had the same thing happen to me on a 2002 3.4L first time I changed the belt too. Turned it over a few times and nothing lined up anymore.
    My math whiz brother happened by and quickly calculated it would take several times for them all to line up again. I finished putting it together and it ran great.
