If you own the car long enough you will do this job again.

What I do when replacing timing gear. Is put the new one on, than wait a day before closing everything up. That way I can recheck it multiple times and confirm that it was installed properly. Paranoid maybe. You don’t want to miss sleep over this.

Don’t forget to torque it down.
