Take that POS off and get a OEM one. Aftermarket crank pulleys suck and ive heard stories as to them being bad.

Dude...im not being an *******. Im trying to help you out. Obviously you have no idea how to make the mark..yet alone how they are set on the pulley. Thats why i told you to buy a OEM pulley. How hard is that? Im trying to save you time and maybe even also a new engine. Cuz it is known that aftermarket pulleys mess up the crankshaft balance. Also they dont do **** as far as power or anything.

i don't know whats worse.. the level of 'tarded ness in this thread, or the horrible spelling.

correct answer is buy a timing wheel. if you don't know what that is, or google it and don't immediately grasp the concept after seeing a picture, then there is little hope for you.

either way you should throw that pos crank pulley in the trash and buy something more practical.

"Make marks" as in put an indention on the pulley? I'd try a pencil engraver or dremel.
