How do you identify the timing marks on a 1996 Mazda MX-6?

To identify the timing marks on a 1996 Mazda MX-6, first, locate the timing belt cover on the front of the engine. Remove the cover to access the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys. The timing marks are typically notched lines or dots on the pulleys that align with corresponding marks on the engine. Ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for accurate alignment.
