don't fix it replace it i saw one on eBay just yesterday for 48 dollars.. new..
Usually there is a diagram under the hood either by the radiator or the hood itself.
The belt itself is rubber and wouldn't have a mark. The mark is usually at the top of the engine and one on the upper belt gear that when they are facing one another means your on the money.
There should be a diagram either on the inside of the hood or on the crossmember in front of the radiator.
I have the diagram that I got off ALLDATA. "GM does not provide a timing mark diagram for belt installion without using the special tool(s) listed in the Timing Belt service procedure." But I did mine without and only used two vice-clamps to hold the front to cams in line and the back two. Line those marks up and the Crank's mark will need to be set about at "2 o'clock" its wierd but that's how they are made.
You can find the seat wiring diagram for the Mark VIII in a Haynes repair manual. The book is available at book and auto parts stores.

The timing mark for the Mazda 626 is in front of the engine. The marks for it belt are on the belt itself. The time for this can be set with a timing gun. A mechanic can set this for you.
Is the diagram on radiator support gone? Try an auto parts store they may have one a dealer will have one. Or do like I do. The back side (smooth side) of the belt will always go on a smooth pulley & ribbed will go on groved pulleys. Mark on a PC of paper the position on each pulley & which are groove-smooth. Takes a few min to figure out but it will work,

Unless you are putting on a new timing belt ,you do not set the timing on the car ,it is completely controlled by the onboard computer, if you are going to put a new timing chain on then post that you need the settings for that and i will try and find the diagram for you and the timing mark, i have it written down somewhere here in my notes , i had to repalce the belt or chain, per say and then and only then do u need to adjust the mark, after that its all pc stuff,
Go to this website: " thelincolnmarkviiclub.org " there you can find out anything you want to know about your Mark VII!!!
