I checked the ECM last night and my car still wont start. Does anyone know the proper way to set the cams. I recently had to reset them because I had to preplace the crank, and I used a Altima book assuming the motors are the same

I used the original head, the reason for the altima book was couldnt seem to find a 240 book anywhere right away. I'll try the search thanks lost93

Yes, I am looking for a repair manual. I feel more confident doing the repairs myself.
