Pop open the QR,count the number of turns you loosen it. When reinstalling the wheel,position the lever in the same spot as when you removed it,and tighten the same number of turns. QED.
For locking/bolt-on skewers,note the position you hold the the key/wrench to start,and count the number/amount of turns.
