Re: timing nightmare

The flywheel TDC mark should be a small zero, not the V notch. Pull #1 spark plug, insert a long slender screwdriver to touch the piston & turn the crank back & forth until you are positive it is at TDC, the mark should be seen or your at #4 TDC. When I'm setting up the belt I will turn the crank about one notch counterclockwise while the cam & distributor are on the mark. When the tensioner pulls the slack out of the belt the will usually line up correctly.
