The timing belt slipped on my truck and I was wondering where do I line the top pulley up at, I have the bottom one at 6deg BTDC. Do I line the top pulley up with the number 1 at the arrow or there is a little circle make just before the 1, im not sure if this is where im suposed to line it up at.

Put the engine no.1 piston on its compression stroke/TDC and make sure the rotor is pointing to the no.1 cap tower

I believe the torque that rasmataz has given me is for the six small bolts that attach the crankshaft pulley to the timing gear. The torque I need is for the large bolt that secures the timing gear/sprocket to the crankshaft. I suspect it will be alot of torque in the range 75 to 120 foot pounds. This torque is not listed in the Haynes Manual that I have for the vehicle.
