well one way of timing off when you take off from top and hear like a funny rattle from the is one way..but to tell if the timing belt is bad you can only look at it to tell that if you start to see the thread coming out the sides or cracking between the teeth or if it is no longer black and more of a SMOOTHglossy brown...you can also try compression test

Some people manually turn the engine over with spark plugs out
and align the timing marks on the crank, and look at the timing gear/gears to see if they are lined up properly.-Bob
