theres just that thing with the wires that has two screws and the plate that goes on the crank shaft?? how could you possibly screw up the positioning..?

im getting no spark and im thinking its that? i just did my timing belt..

where are my cam position sensors? did i mess with those at all?

Your cam position sensor and your crank position sensor are one in the same, just check all you timing marks and make sure they're all pointing the correct way and the notches by the dowels are pointing straight up w/the notches on the teeth are lined up at TDC with your crank sprocket and oil pump sprocket. If everything is fine with that and you're still having problems do the timing light thing.

When was te last time you changed your plugs.

never changed the plugs but i have barely driven the car.. and i made sure before everything was put back that the points we correct, and even if my timing was off i should still get a spark!

do you have to purchase these timing lights? or can i make it?

Cam position sensor should be on the left of the valve cover, at the end of the intake cam, the crank sensor is as you said on the crankshaft. make sure all the connectors are plugged in properly. Sometimes the sensor can break, it is just a plastic bit.
