Rotor shaft is facing radiator, so timing can't be out at all. (engine is TDC compression stroke) Spoke to a reputable shop today "Alan from Rajab Racing" said he will have a look (hope l'm in safe hands now)!! touch wood... the cog dot is '0', count 53 flat sections of the belt. If it's 1 tooth either way it will still start and run.
