Should Timing Have To Be Set After Changing Timing Belt? 700 1988

Got the timing belt changed from info found on this excellent forum:) Started right up, but acts as if the timing might be a little advanced. Got some mild pinging and it died a time or two when engaging the tranny. All my timing marks appeared to line up perfectly.

- Could I possibly be one cog off on belt? Could it still run?

- Could there be enough difference between the old and new belts that the timing needs set?

- Where is sum info on setting the timing? I didn't see anything in FAQ.

P.S. - the belt did break while running at low rpms;it is a B230 non-turbo with 8 valves, so there should be no issues from that, right?

Thank you! Mike.
