I was trying to verify tdc on my car the other week, and since I’ve owned the car the timing belt has moved back and forth on the gears. During the process I noticed the washer portion of the crank gear could rotate freely around the back of the keyway on the crank, and that my udp had become knife edged. I replaced the gear with a 1 piece unit off a 03 svtf engine and with a new udp from ZXTuner the timing belt stays in 1 place
