New Timing Belt installed, all lined up with timing marks, after full rotation, marks on belt do NOT match the marks on the sprockets now. Is this an issue or not? The 3 timing marks
still line up so it is still in time. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks John

The marks on the actual belt?Are for only intail timing once you make one full engine rotation they won't be lined up. It will take a certain amount of rotations to have them line up again.

Saturntech9- thanks for the info. I have watched several YouTube videos and it shows the belt being rotated and the marks are still lined up. As long as the marks lumber up with the cams and camshaft, I'm good, feel much better.. John

Yeah all the ones I have done with the marks on the belt once you rotate the engine around once the marks on the belt no longer line up. Also colored links on the timing chains same deal. Glad I could please tell all your friends about us.
