Check Camshaft Adjustment ?

I have a spare sensor

It was running fine before i did the timing

i recon the timing between cams is out. 16 rollers between gears and both squares on the cam in line with the arrows on the cam bearing caps. It's a pain as you can set it, but when the tensioner fills with oil it pulls it out of time.

Obviously this is assuming the main crank/cam timing is accurate.

Would the timing cause it to smoke?

This is starting to **** me off with all the problems
