has a couple useful pics; distributor with rotor in TDC position, TDC mark on
crank.
Audi specs a simple plastic tool that holds the (correct sized) rotor in
position while installing the distributor.

Page was thrown together a couple years ago at the timing-belt-a-thon at my
house in Windham (don't go back, as I've moved)...
Hey, another 60 something on the clock; anyone up for another group of belts
at the end of summer?
Note that this proc has the "use a tranny bolt to hold the crank" method;
Bernie pointed out that this won't work on the 20vt.
