I have a 98 zx2,my question is how do I adjust the timing on it?It will crank but won't turn over.Ive tryied everything I know.it gets spark,fuel,compression,I just changed the serpentine belt and IM thinking its out of time so that's why it won't turn over.Any help is greatly appreciated,I can't afford to pay a mechanic right now and need to get it running.Thanks.

You said you checked the serpentine. Have you checked the timing belt? Are you sure you have fuel? The inertia switch can sometimes be a tricky gremlin.

The serpentine belt does not effect your timing.

The only way to check the timing would be to pull the cover and check the crank and cam timing marks. Any off the shelf manual will show you how, or you can search here for it. It has been well documented in previous threads.
