More info if you want answers. What year is the car? Do you have check engine light on?

How do you know it jumped timing?

I have the whole procedure on a pdf

i still say the car is flooding cuz of the distributor. if it jumped timing it would run but a little off and prolly bent valves so noise and stuff like that

Get a Haynes or Chilton manual if you are trying to check the alignment marks for you tming belt. In Haynes manual see page 2A-12, figure 7.48 for a SOHC engine and page 2A-9, figure 7.14 Chilton manual has the DOHC on page 3-39 and SOHC on page 3-42.
