Don't know if any of you saw Car SOS the other day, but Fuzz cuts the timing belt in half along its length, so leaving the other half in place to keep all the timing correct. Then slips the new belt on and then cuts the remaining half off. If you are sure you are going to replace the belt then the first half can be used to count the number of teeth.
