make sure number one piston is TDC. all dots line up. the crank gear should be in the 5 o-clock position with one colored chain link line up, and the intake cam gear should have an "I" line up with another colored link in the 1 o-clock position, then the exhaust cam gear marked with an "E" line up with another colored link in the 11 o-clock position

and all of the slack should be on the exhaust side, where the tensioner should be. best way to do this is once all lined up, take a socket and SLIGHTLY put tension on crank, this should pull slack out of between the gears. then pop the tensioner.
