I found the problem my lower timing gear or crankshaft gear depending on what you what to call it was broken the 2 roll pins that come out the back side that goes through the metal plate to count timing seared off so the plate would not spin correctly and would not count time replaced the gear put everything back together and is running prefect

Im trying to find help replacing the seals on the crankshaft. The one that's bolted on has rotted out but all the basic videos just show the o-ring one and I cant find a car specific guide
