Quick Question About Timing.
Hello Everyone
I'm new to this forum but I hate to just jump in ask a such a big question but I started a my timing belt job on 04 Tacoma 3.4l v6 which i'm sure its a 5VZ-FE. Now my question is I took the belt off before I could set it to TDC and line up the marks :/ am I screwed? or can I still set my timing by turning the cam and crank with out any damage?
Thank you for your time.

The 5vz-fe is a non-interference engine. The cam and crank can be aligned to the TDC marks by turning in a clockwise direction with no harm to the engine.
There is a thread in this forum sub-section by member skjos that will go step-by-step through the process on the 5vz-fe.
