Which of the piston suppose to be up when setting the timing for volvo s60 5 cylinder
FYI, the mark on the end of the crank pully to the mark on the engine body is not TDC as it is purely a mark for aligning the pistons so that they do not collide with the valves when the camshafts are turned by hand when there is no belt in place.
Another timing belt question Volvo Forums Volvo Enthusiasts Forum
Volvo Timing Belt Replacement S60 Timing Serpentine Tensioner Rollers...
A simple question but the answer is not simple. The vid is purportedly good and you'd be much better joining the forum or an other Volvo forum if you aren't in uk, if you run into problems.

There is no room for error...... Zero clearance. If off one tooth it can and will bend valves. if you are one that just feels the need to get alittle dirty or just can't pay for the service, then get out your Haynes out and turn to .....Tune up, and look at replacing timming belt. Get a cam gear tool that locks them into place so as that they will not move when u have them lined up. make sure they are lined up with marks as said in book. then make sure crank as well as all marks are lined up acordingly. make sure belt marks are lined up with everything. i would reccomend using a volvo belt though cause it will have all the marks on it.However other company's make good quality belts also at a fraction of the price. So it is really up to you.
Good thing when doing timming belt is to also change out your timming belt tensioner. YES do this it will save you a engine in the long run. it is a moving part that will go bad, it will freeze up and snap timming belt. rip out teeth in thebelt and bend valves. So as a gen rule...When you change timming belt, Change belt tensioner at same time since you cant just change tensioner without changing or getting timming belt off. Remember to use your HAYNES. It is your friend and will save you money in the long run. Good luck... Hope this helps you.

if you could get your hands on a scanner to read some live data it would help your plight,there is a cam position sensor when you take of the the plastic head cover at the timing belt end,did you check plugs,it also might help to clean the maf with some contact spray,sounds like plugs

if you do not have the tools or the knowledge it is better to leave it to a qualified mechanic because if it is not done properly they have to fix it but if you do it you could create a lot of heartache for your hip pocket

try to start your car with the valet key instead of master should start right up problem is master key.
SOURCE: setting the marks at the proper degree where do they need to be set at
your best bet is to acquire aldata on the internet and download it ,lots of information and maps that you would not imagine it only cost about 30.00 /yr to have it and is renewable for 14.95 /yr,you could never go wrong
