Crankshaft Timing Mark

RE: Crankshaft Timing Mark
I ordered the volvo special tool for the job...still waiting for it to come. Didn't want to fork out the cash for an air compressor, wrench, and sockets for this one job. Couldn't find anyone that rented a gun either. Tool was about $50...hopefully can make some money back on it if I should ever sell it on ebay.

RE: Crankshaft Timing Mark
Hey tech
Just a quick question, I have read that if you are a tooth or 2 out, your engine will have a drop in performance. Is this a quite noticeable difference, or would you have to be an expert to know the difference?
I changed my belt yesterday and I' just trying to make sure all is right (had a hell of a time lining up timing marks when putting on the belt).
Thanks.

so here are
1) right hand camshaft timing mark,
2) left hand camshaft timing mark from in front
3) left hand camshaft timing mark from above and it appaears to me that the left hand is off by one tooth.
4) the crankshaft and I can't see any marks
5) the tensioner is at ambient , 70 deg F, but appears to way to the left.

well i figured out that the timing marks on camshaft sprockets must line up with cutouts in the top cover. so they were right to begin with, but every time I tried it was off one so I moved the sprocket a little by hand
when I was moving the camshaft sprocket end they seem to be on some sort of eccentic.
Is there any way I could have messed that up moving the end around a little?

VVT on both exhaust and intake
I had to move them slightly counter clockwise and then forward clockwise to find when they actually stated to push against the valves.
The exhaust required more movement. Is there any way to have screwed up the valve timing by moving these VVT sprockets by hand?
