Misc Data: Deisel Affected Item: Timing belt Condition: timing mark problems

____________________________________________________________

Neighbor has this VW deisel that he bought not running right. He removed head and had valve job done. He asked me for help lining up the timing belt. I looked at the procedure in a few manuals,but still i am having problems. The manuals say to lock cam using special tool,(no problem) to set crank at tdc using mark on clutch,(no problem) to line up marks on injection pump sprocket,pump bracket and pump,(no problem). When these are aligned however i can not lock sprocket with special tool. The hole in the sprocket is not even close to lining up with the hole in bracket. I don't know if the sprocket is the wrong one or if i am missing something in the directions! Any help would be appreciated! Thanx
