Crankshaft pulley marks - cambelt replacment vbelt adjuster tool 850 1995

They should shoot the engineer that the designed the mark/indentation on crankhaft sprocket. It took me more time to find the little mark than to change the cambelt(I hope i got the mark) Does anyone now the relation between the mark on the vbelt pulley to the mark on the cambelt pulley. It might be easier to line the vbelt mark with something .

BTW the cambelt replacement is actually than my Prelude. At least i don't have to take an engine moutning out BUT the marks are must better on the Prelude


Just for interest sake , for the adjuster of the vbelt that needs a 3/4" drive , what I did i took a 19mm bolt and nut, On the bolt head I ground/filed down 2 opposites edges/points to make it fit in the square hole. I then added a big washer to the bolt and tightened it with the nut. That way I was able to push the bolt head up to the washer into the tensioner and use a 19 mm spanner to move it. The load is taken up by 2 flat sides (not the grinded one) which should be ok. Just chuck the tool into your tools bag.
