Alright mate, my mate who's a mechanic at a garage borrowed the tool from our local dealer (they wouldn't lend it to me, can't say I blame them though) as my mates place does all the MOT's for the dealer.

There are timing marks on the actual timing belt cover that you line the marks on the cam pulleys up with.



Providing that your engine hasn't been pissed about with, you shouldn't need the tool, just line up the marks and it should be ok.

If you want be doubly sure then you can pop the bungs out at the back of the head where the cams are (make sure you get some new bungs as you will ruin them getting them out - cheap enough), you'll then see the triggers for the camshaft position sensors, you'll need to remove these (Torx 30 bolts. You might want to order a new pair of bolts as one of mine rounded off and I had to remove it with a hammer and chisel, already bought a pair just in case). Once you've got those off, you'll be able to see the slots the back of the cams, much like a Zetec. The slots are however offset ie: one sits higher than the other. As long as the slots are dead straight in relation to the cam cover to cylinder head join, they'll be fine!
