On the edge of the Distributor, there is also a mark etched at the position of the #1 plug wire. When the Intermediate Camshaft is lined up correctly, the rotor will point DIRECTLY to this mark.

If you botched the t-belt job and got it a notch or two off, and are really pressed for time and don't feel like removing the crankshaft pulley and lower timing belt cover all over again, it is possible to speed things up by using the Distributor mark to align the intermediate camshaft again...

Don't ask. It was a terrible day, and I don't like to talk about it.
