Before deciding 100% on replacing the v6 with a 4 cylinder I decided to see what damage was done to the engine. The timing chain for the passenger side broke. What adjustments need to be made when replacing the chain? How is timing set on this engine? I don't have a volvo manual that covers this engine in case you wondered. Thanks.

      I am in Tampa FL and was hoping someone could share the information on timing adjustment since the job seems very straight forward. How much is the volvo manual I would need to buy anyhow?
