It's supposed to be just like it is in the pic provided. The Yellow mark on the Main Pulley needs to be aligned w/the fixed pin first and when it does then you look at the alignment in the CAS.

You don't have to remove the CAS to set it properly. If it needed adjustment then you just rotate it as necessary. If you had to remove it you could hit the side with a hammer to loosen it up.

It could but you won't really know til you adjust it by a tooth to where it lines up just right. "If" it is slightly off the car will start, but tend to not run as smooth as it needs to.

If you're comfortable w/the CAS position then you might want to see if the TPS measures out properly on the G/R wire when the engine is as hot as it can get.
