[this doesnt look right]

Just left the local dealer and they said it's more than likely the head gaskets going out on it instead of the water pump does this sound logical? Use to working on chevy and ford stuff

[this doesnt look right]

We plan on replacing the belt and stuff but yeah

[So iam working on my 96 Impreza and i noticed that with the crank at tdc with the hash marks on it the other two marks wont line up]

do u have a email I can send these pics to after I get them would be easier to email them all at once then go threw and resize them since u can only upload a 2mb picture?

going out right now to get another couple pics and I put the duct tape on there....

 

got the car for 400 used from a tow yard so yeah

[this doesnt look right]

The car runs just fine tho thats what I don't understand why it looks off only reason I even looked at it was because the water pump is out so....

couldn't figure out how to post pics from my phone so I posted a new topic but here is the pic with the two outside ones lined up and the center one off by this much

[this doesnt look right]

96 impreza 2.2 with the 2 outside hash marks lined up the center one is off by this much does this mean timing is advanced or? not familiar with timing belts at all

thought all three where supposed to line up?

[So iam working on my 96 Impreza and i noticed that with the crank at tdc with the hash marks on it the other two marks wont line up]

what u mean? which marks are supposed to line up? not to familiar with timing belts never had to change one before

cant get pictures to upload but can email pictures from my phone if u post ur email

At first I thought maybe the last person to do this just lined it up with the marks on the plastic cover because with that at zero with the hash mark it is really close to zero on that gauge but with checking the number one cylinder it is in fact in line with the mark on the motor so the other two marks are off? confused not sure what to do with this has anyone else ran into this problem or can some one tell me how to adjust this to get it all back to tdc? The car ran just fine before just gonna replace it because the water pump went out so yeah any and all help would be great cause cant find crap in the Haynes manual I got about adjusting it. will upload a couple pics in a minute thanks
