Asked by Steve Nov 19, 2011 at 05:38 PM about the 1997 Acura Integra

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I changed the timing belt and now the car will not start! I tore into it and found out that the rotor in the distributor is not facing the right plug wire! How could this happen when all i did was take the belt off and put the new one on? And how can i fix it? Thank u

yes check timeing marks,putting on a new belt can move the gears plus the tension has to be just right,if to loose it will jump time.
