    timing mark silly question

    This will sound silly, one day I looked for a timing plate and looked upon a small 4lined thing that at the time didn't get attention because I just didn't know how, NOW when I look to use it I can't find it. In manuals the only reference is about marks on a wheel TDC but nowhere is it specifically described how to tune the van.
    Just a hint on where to point the timing light pleeeease.

    Should be a small mark on the inside edge of the harmonic balancer.

    Once you've found it, mark it with a white paint pen.

    I had to look that up. I guess that's the vicinity. If I find it is there another to match it too?

    Yeah, there should be a corresponding mark in roughly the 12 o'clock postion, in relation to the crank pulley, on the bottom timing belt cover.
