I have a 1992 Ranger with 2.3L that suddenly lost power on freeway and stopped and couldn't restart. Towed it to Seattle, WA and need Ford Ranger 2.3L engine mechanic to double check the timing since new belt installed to make sure it was done right before cover and rest of engine reinstalled.

 

On the '93 I had. I seem to remember marks on the gears that had to be lined up and then the belt put on. Pretty straight forward.

 

I can recommend a shop in Kent that I used to work at, but the owner likes to browbeat people with his liberal mantra. Except he hates weed, and will criticize people about it.
They are right behind the Chevron on 84th, at the intersection with 212.

 

Crank gear key way at 12:00. Dot on gear pointing at notch in casting that holds the front seal. Cam gear mark (triangle) at 5:00 or lined up with triangle on plastic inner cover. Oil pump gear diamond mark at 12:00 or lined up with diamond on plastic inner cover.

 

Beta nickel you could use google and find pictures of the sprockets in time for all model years.
