yes when I bought it from the previous owner it was a rebuilt title and he put a new motor in it and did everything but couldn’t get it started and said it was the timing needed to be corrected.

ok I see how would I turn the gears for the camshaft on the intake and exhaust clockwise or counterclockwise? And also how would I turn the gear for the camshaft? Using a wrench or some kind of special tool? Should I take out the spark plugs when I do this? Just wanna make sure the installation is done right. Also how would I test it to make sure its right besides trying to start it up? Thanks for the help
