Belt has slipped off, what marks am I looking for to align it again, I see the hole in the top sprocket, what is on the flywheel? Thanks
The ryobi s430 has a hole in the timing wheel with ,perhaps a red mark on it or next to it like mine.lining that up with the piece at the bottom that goes straight down puts the cam lobes right at 180 degrees away from the rockers and readies the valvetrain for the compression stroke.if you remove the valve cover,which by the way has a really tough reusable gasket,youll see the cam and rocker arms.you want the lobes of the cams to be as fara away from operating the rocker arms as possible.next, you ll find top dead center to be not quite lined up, with respect to magneto edges and flywheel magnets.using a tiny screwdriver, you can put the tip in the spark plug hole not quite an inch and rotate the flywheel SLOWLY.being careful not to somehow allow the screwdriver to become pinched between the piston and cylinder(that spark plug hole is at a funky angle)at some point,youll fee fell the piston approach top dead center.youll notice there are a few degrees that the flywheel will turn before the screwdriver will fall back down,indicating travel has begun toward bdc(bottomdead center).you want the crank asembly to be set in the center point between when the screwdriver stops rising out of the spark plug hole to the point it just starts to fall back in.that should be close enough.my problem now is getting the timing belt OFF.mine is bad and I've torn down all the way past the flywheel.at this point,i can see the timing belt,but now there's this pressed bearing in the way that ive yet to figure out how to remove.viva la ryobi

Rotate the engine so that No. 1 cylinder is at TDC on the
compression stroke. Check that the timing marks are aligned on the
camshaft and crankshaft pulleys. An access plug is provided in the cam
belt cover so that the camshaft timing can be checked without removal
of the cover or any other parts. Set the crankshaft to TDC by aligning
the timing mark on the crank pulley with the TDC mark on the belt
cover. Look through the access hole in the belt cover to make sure that
the timing mark on the cam drive sprocket is lined up with the pointer
on the inner belt cover.
To install:
The spring cannot be used to set belt tension; a wrench must be used on the tensioner assembly.
SOURCE: how do you align the camshaft & crankshaft timing marks 1.9
This is the same as a Ford Escort 1.9, the #1 cylinder should be all the way up. To confirm- the crak shift mark should be on zero which is Crank Shift Center- THe camshift sproket should align with the headmark. Make sure both marks don't move. Align the belt- not too tight , not to loose

hi i have a diagram of it here and as far as i can see the marks on the twin cams are actually aligned with the top of the cover edge there should be an arrow on each cam pulley, that is pointing upwards, and you should have 2 marks either side horizontal and line up with the cover , the bottom crank pulley has a v cut out which lines up with a mark which is a angled line on the engine cover my picture may be different from your one if you want you can email me i will send you it so you compare it to your one

hope this helps
