RE: Timing Belt problem Plz help!
From the service manual, it says to line up the timing marks on the cams and belt, making sure their are equal amount of "teeth" (on the belt) between the cam sprockets (intake and exhaust cams) and use large paper clips (the binder, clamp on kind) to hold things in place. It also said to rotate the crank pulley 1 tooth COUNTERCLOCKWISE from TDC using the timing mark. When you release the tension on the tensioner, everything should line up.
While you are in there, I would recommend replacing the water pump and the idler/tensioner pulleys and the t-belt itself.
