I always mark on the belt the position of a tooth on each pulley (including the crank). I then transfer these marks to the new belt so I know they line up tooth for tooth with the marks I've made on the pulleys. I then know the timing is exactly as it was when I stripped it regardless of the timing marks. I've used this method on T6 engine, T5 engine, D5 engine. Rob.
