Got a '95 maxima with a vq30de engine ..I have NEVER worked on a 24 valve , twin cam car before .. It started leaking water really bad from behind inner timing cover .. removed outer and inner covers .. bad water pump ...old gasket material ..
All information I have on timing marks ,, leave me a bit confused ... what would I do if I'm off ..I only removed the 1 chain from crank to water pump - and front cam sprockets ... any help would be greatly appreciated .........

go off the marks shown on the write up, you may see paint marks that when in time are off, this is usually from the factory marking that the chain has been installed close to correct timing and minor adjustment is needed later on the assembly line.
