Hi,

With the dust cover off, you should be able to see both marks on the camshaft and crankshaft. These need to be aligned perfectly for the timing to be set right. Is your tensioner properly installed without slack? Get used to the lack of replies in this forum as there doesn't appear to be too many people interested in the Accent or offering their replies.

Good luck
