I had my timing belt changed about 5 months ago. since it was changed, it now idles at about 600 rpm and sounds like it's about to quit running. i looked for the timing specification in the manual but did not see it. i have a timing light, but when i put it on the pulley, i don't see the timing mark to set the timing by. any suggestions?

Hi WagrantSr,

Most probably the timing belts had been installed incorrectly which would result in the missing timing mark.
