for easiest reach..... Remove the drivers side motor mount, Then remove your valve cover.
Remove your spark plugs.

There's a bolt on the lower plastic cover almost in line with the bottom of the motor mount (I think it's a 12mm or 14mm), loosen the bolt only till there's enough play in the timing belt to slide off of the cam gears.

Now turn the crank pulley clockwise with a wratchet and 19mm socket until the white mark on the crank lines up with the plastic 3D arrow on the same cover that the belt tenson bolt is on.
You can see the mark perfect if you look from the front of the motor down under the motor mount, If looking at the crank pulley from dead on....The 3D mark will be at the 11 o-clock position.

Once the crank lines are lined up together, Adjust the cams so they are sitting straight up and the arrows are all lined up.

Now while you turn the Crank clockwise (slowly), let three teeth on the cam gears pass and have your helper begin tightening the timing belt tenson bolt till the it starts to get tight. (don't wrench on the tenson bolt, just tighten it to feel...Like 20lbs-30lbs of pressure).

Now turn the crank pulley one or two complete revolutions and make sure the cam gears are still lining up perfect together while the crank pulley white mark lines up with the plastic 3D arrow.

If everything is lined up....Then your done!!!

reinstall your motor mount and valve cover, Make sure that timing belt tenson bolt is tight and and close everything up.
