All this will do is let you see the lobe on the intake cam. If you have the upper timing cover off, just align the harmonic balancer with the notch at 0?. If the cam gears also align with the marks on the rear plate, your on the compression stroke. If not, then rotate the crankshaft 180?. If they still don't align, then you will need to loosen the timing belt and adjust the camshafts to correct your valve timing.
Also, be sure to install the cps with the crank at 0?, not at 10? BTDC.
