Really???  Wow!  Somehow I guess I lucked out last time, then!  I'm sure
glad you told me this.  I was banging my head against the side of the
car by the time I gave up and went upstairs.  I'll go back down tomorrow
and do it right.  I just couldn't understand why thetiming kept changing
on me---d'oh!

Where (and what) is the cam?

Right in the center, in front (toward the front of the car) of the big,
round plate that has the hole where you drain the oil from.
