Adding to nbleak21's comment above, are you sure the car was warmed up when you checked for timing marks. Being completely unable to find the marks suggests a problem with the timing belt, the engine temp, your placement of the timing light, or that the timing is too far off. Also, there is a normal oscillation of the timing a couple degrees plus or minus the stock setting, so if the marks momentarily disappear, that might be why.
