nemosis Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Checking the timing for first time. TDC is pretty clearly marked (now). Pulley rotates CW so single mark CCW (to left of TDC) is AFTDC, correct, and 5 deg?...by same token CW (to right of TDC) is BFTDC?..first mark is five degrees, second to right is 10 deg., and each subsequent mark to right is another 10 deg.? Thank you for the clarification. 1 Quote Link to comment

racerx Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 A few degrees should not matter much. Just make sure when tdc, your rotor is pointing towards number 1 spark plug and two front cam lobes are at 10 and 2 pm. Also ur v notch should be on the indentation. Quote Link to comment
