need help with adjusting my cam gear.
So the other day, I hit a shitload of snow and it got my intake filter wet.
So needless to say, the car stopped running and I pushed it to a friends house and checked it out.
I replaced the spark plugs and whatnot, and they're not getting wet so I'm pretty convinced there's little to no water in my engine.
Anyways, it's cranking but it's just not wanting to start.
We advanced my dizzy all the way and it gets soo close to starting.
I CAN get it to start if I pump the gas, but that won't do the engine any good. And if it DOES start, it sounds like a POS push lawnmower.
Which is horrible because I have an Apex'I WS2 exhaust.
But anyways, I'm not willing to pay $150 for a shop to take off my timing belt and adjust my cam gear to where it should be.
This has happened before, just not as bad, and my friend who worked at a Honda dealership did just that.
Thing is, he had difficulty putting the belt back on, but I can manage with that somehow.
The real challenge for me is to put the cam gear back where it should be.
I'm no good at reading the markings.
Can anyone tell me what I need to look for?
I have a Skunk2 adj. cam gear.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Anyone have any ideas why it wouldn't start?
I'm getting spark and fuel to the engine.
I haven't done a compression test because I don't have the stuff to do it.
