2014 Mazda 5 engine timing.
#28
So I got it finally. I decided to use some nail polish I borrowed from my friends wife to make some timing marks on the cam gears, as well as the harmonic balancer pulley. I got the Ford/Mazda timing tool from AutoZone, put the plate in the cam slots, used a longer bolt than came in the kit for the crank stop, and torqued everything down. Made 2 full revolutions to set the timing after and all the marks lined up exactly where they were supposed to. Thanks for helping Grim reaper. I think I speak for many of us when I say I'd love to throat punch the engineer who designed this motor with no alignment pins for the cams or the crank pulley or timing marks, lol.
