10 years 4 months ago - 10 years 4 months agomake sure the marks still align once you have tightened the cam cap bolts.
timing mark positions depend on what year, on the points if you have them, behind the righthand engine cover. you piston timing is normally TDC on No 1

This is the TDC mark (T) for #1 and #6 on the A1, A2 and B2 engines.
The timing mark on the rotor needs to line up with the top of the mating surface of the lower crankcase
