I know you need to lock down the IP with the metal dowel tool.
How do you adjust after it is locked down. Do I need to take the timing cover off and then adjust the sprocket to the IP???
Not very sure how to bring back into timing.
The car cranks but will not ignite. Glow plugs are checked. And new head was installed so compression should be up to snuff.

Isn't the fuel injected at 33-35deg BTDC?
Also how would rolling on a new chain effect the timing. If anything it should bring it back in line. Unless someone messed with it instead of replacing the chain or adding a woodruff key. Do you know for sure there is no offset wodruff key installed?

Where is the timing suppose to be.
And how exactly do you set it. I unbolt the IP and turn toward and away from the engine???
Obviously I have never done this before so I need all the advice I can get.

First you have to have the crank set at the right position. Then you unbolt the pump and move it either towards(advance) or away(retard) from the engine.
You can look for that V that was mentioned or you can use the drip method.
All the on-line manuals show how to do this.
