Hi James
Thanks for your query. It is these sort of questions that enable me to clarify any points which will hopefully make it clearer for anyone wanting to do the job. Normally before dismantling I turn the engine to the O degree mark on the bottom pulley. This can be done by turning it over using either the drive belts or the 24mm socket on the bottom pulley bolt. Individual pulleys can be moved back to position with a spanner on the bolt or by using the old belt wrapped over them to turn them (distributor one will turn easily by hand). I hope this clarifies.

Mike
