I got very confused earlier..
Trying to lock the engine, there was no way when the fly was locked, the cam wouldn't line up..
Finally realised (and after a call to DumDum, cheers mate!) that as it's a DT flywheel, the timing doesn't match.. Ended up locking the fly, then marking the belt and counting teeth..
Just a "warning" in case anyone else is in the same boat!

The holes are in the same place on both flywheels.....
Are you sure you had it in the right hole...there a few notchs you can lock into by mistake...

It's ridiculous, you time them off the crank pulley but the outer is bonded to the inner with a rubber strip that corrodes and slips. Daftness.
