hmmm
Well I personally think it sounds like the engine is running "one tooth out" on the belt.
Before we go any further:
Move the flywheel around until you find the timing pin hole that aligns with the hole in the block, insert 6mm bolt or drill to lock.
Then take the cam pulley covers off, and see if the cam pulleys are now in the correct position. The inlet cam pulley bolt hole should be at 8 o clock, whereas the exhaust cam pulley hole should be at 6 o'clock.
You should then be able to insert 6 or 8mm (can't remember) bolts through the timing pulleys into the head.
If they don't align, or its slightly out, then theres the problem....

Car has had timing set but wont start.
