04 Explorer Sport Trac 4.0L SOHC need help putting engine in time
my wife was driving the sport trac and a link in the camshaft chain broke , and cut a gash in the valve cover , i fixed the cover , and replaced the chains

but how on earth do u put this engine back in time?
all the guide show use of a Camshaft Positioning Tool , what i dont see is what angle does the cam go in at horizontal with head , vertical with head ?
im thinking if i use the CPT , then i could still end up with the cam 180degrees out

Currently i have Piston 1 in TDC , and cant figure out where to set the cams

Any help would be greatly appreciated :mad: :type:
