To install the timing belt on a 1994 VW Eurovan with a 2.5-liter engine, first, ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) by aligning the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft. Remove the old timing belt and any necessary components, such as the timing cover. Install the new timing belt, ensuring it is properly tensioned and aligned with the timing marks. Finally, reassemble any removed components and double-check the alignment before starting the engine.
