The method of timing verification shown in this video can be used on any car. Even on old school, non-computer controlled systems. I am also showing in this video how to properly align the timing chains on a 2003 Suzuki Aerio 2.0

Engine Performance Diagnostics chapter 1 pages 17-23

Symptoms
- no start with good spark, fuel and compression
- cylinder head was repaired and timing chains replaced and now the engine will not start

Fix
- remove and re-align timing chain (wrong colored link was used on the main chain to align the marks)

Tests shown
- how to determine the cause of a no start condition
- how to check for spark with a basic spark tester
- how to verify fuel is getting to the cylinder (propane test)
- how to test for proper compression
- how to determine perform a relative compression test
- how to verify proper ignition timing with a scope
- how to use an in-cylinder pressure transducer
- how to set the timing chains properly
