But I was able to mark the balancer and put a mark on the water pump spout so I could get within 15-20 degrees
Just needing some help

Choke flap supposed to be fully open when warmed up, if not, you`ll get what your experiencing, that and not knowing really where your timings at.

Is it possible for these engines to jump timing? Had an older escort that acted like this and it had jumped timing. Of course the escort used a belt where this has a chain.

Just trying to figure out why it was running 2 days ago and now it won't start.

Yes, OEM had nylon sprocket teeth.

So, serious question. Do I need to stop trying to go forward, and pull the cover off to make sure all timing marks line up and then proceed from there?

Make sure you have fuel and spark. If so, you`ll have the excuse to source the proper cover.
