What year is the car? I had to change the belt in my '92 earlier this year. It was a bit of a pain, but knowing where TDC was the key. For the '92, TDC is about 2:30ish on the crank ... the plasic housing is the key, if you look closely you will see the timing indicator on the back plastic housing. ...
