Options if timing is one tooth off after cranking - Chrysler Forum

My passenger side cam timing mark is one tooth towards passenger side after setting the timing on the 300M. Crank and driver side cam marks still there. What are my options? (I have not loosened either cam bolt but moved both cam marks by hand) Thanks!

Thank you for quick reply. You were right and I redid until now it should be good to go. Correct tightening of the tensioner seemed to be my problem. Took me a while to figure that out.

Got the 2000 300m started after timing belt/water pump, thermostat, drivebelts replacement job, started it up and got a rattling noise and noticed the ac pulley looked loose (it wasn't). Stopped the car and the pulley is pulling up against the housing and grinding metal on metal? any ideas? Thank you!
