do you have the engine type for me or the year the vehicle was built?
There is one dot on the crankshaft sprocket and another on the camshaft one. These should be away from each other (cramk towards the bottom, cam towards the top) and aligned in such a way that they form an imaginary line with the crankshaft and camshaft centers. If you get a manual you will see this in picture.
That would be for the 680 engine. I suspect this GTL has a 688 engine. But the principle is exactly the same.
let us know how it worked out.

can i suggest that you remove the tensioner and the first main bearing cap and check that the oilway drilling to the tensioner is free from any burnt carbon and sludge. Use a flexible brush and some degreaser and then blow it through with an air line. Clean up the tensioner as well - even better, fit a new one if you are also fitting a new chain.
this the way how it work .
By the way what is agood compression in this engine ?
according to the moteur c workshop manual 8,3.

you are right...
About compression pressures, i cannot find any value stated, and i would be interested to know about them.
No additive other than glycol based coolant should be needed, rami54. If, after removing the liners, their machined shoulders on the block are perfectly clean and flat, and the protrusion above the top of the block is carefully adjusted, they will not leak. Don't hurry on any of these.
have you used new paper gaskets on the base of the liners?
