ok, i didn't look at that picture well enough i guess.
i went out and checked and sure enough the alternator belt blocks what i thought the marks were supposed to be, after seeing that picture.
but that didn't make sense, how would you time it? take a belt off? duh.

i looked closer at the picture provided here, and the marks are right where i thought they should be, i've got nothing.
zero marks, i can't really see grooves either?
how pronounced are they?

and about the leave piston at TDC and screw the pulley/line up crank stuff?
any thoughts on that?
much appreciated

thanks.
