#10 of 13 Timing belt reset by leihualani

My old mechanic replaced my water pump and unfortunately due to an unseen issue he was unable to finish the repair of my car. I have another mechanic whose expertise is good but he is a little blown out of the sky when he noticed the last mechanic did not mark the timing belt before it was removed causing the new mechanic to complete the repair. We have had a problem locating a repair manual to reset the belt for me. Where can i obtain this info to assist my new mechanic please. It is nerve recking to share a car. and, that is the only thing he needs to complete to get my car back on the road.

I just replaced a timing belt on a 2001 Mitsubishi D,3.5L V6, you will need to replace the water pump as well.The timing belt drives the water pump.
Manufacture suggest replacing water pump!
Also look at your tensioner,it may need replacing also.
Make sure you adjust the timing belt tensioner correctly,or it will cause premuture
belt failure!

Someone set the timing wrong, go back and reset the timing using the #1 spark plug!Run the #1 piston to Top Dead Center,and then install the timing belt!
It sounds like someone set the timing using the #4 plug!
