I've got a 1993 Ford Ranger 3.0L V6 with a manual transmission and I just got done changing the timing chain and gears (I was changing my water pump, but broke off a bolt and had to take off my timing cover to get it out).
I've got everything buttoned back up but now it stumbles really badly when I accelerate. I'm 95% certain I got the gears lined up and didn't move the crank/camshaft when I was installing them.
Is there anything else I can look at before I break it all apart again to make certain?
I used my Haynes manual for instructions, set piston #1 at TDC and the marks on the old chain were lined up before I removed them (although the chain was pretty loose).
Thanks!
