When you start out by saying you are not a mechanic, and you are rebuilding a engine you are not going to get alot of help here.Rebuilding a engine is not for a amature ? You must line up the crankshaft, cam, fuel injection pump,ect.If you are off on any one of these you will cause damage,
Do you have the parts books, operation manuals ? It will tell you where the timing marks are, there also on the flywheel.A mark on the balancer is 2 degrees, NOT TEETH.
I would not offer any advise on a engine rebuild without seeing it myself,and I think others feel the same way.To much can happen to cause damage

Hi Tommy
It is true that I am not a mechanic. I did not do the rebuild. I am just a go between my mechanic and this site. When he put the gears on the front he lined up the marks. I believe they were marked I, II,AND III. One of his questions is that he saw the picture of the gears lined up in one of my questions before about timing and it shows the gear on the injection as having slots in it and mine doesn't so do I have the right gear on my pump or should I have one with slots in it. I realize that my pump has the slots in it where the bolt holes are so I figured that they would take the place of the slots in the gear but he wanted me to ask. To simplify all of this would it be okay if I gve my mechanic your number so he could call you and sort this out without me confusing anybody anymore? I would appreciate it very much. I bought the short block from circle g tractor and the head from you and had a certified diesel mechanic put it together so this not a backyard rebuild but he still has questions so I am the go between. I do have the manuals for him to use. Thanks again Tommy

The bolts in the gear are not slotted on the TY395I fuel injection pump gear

Thank You tommy for the info you have provided. I have been out of town for a week so I will pass on what you have provided so far to my mechanic and see if he is ready to proceed with trying to time my tractor. I will let you know how things work out.
