Hello Despite trawling the web and looking through my books, I can't seem to find an easy to read method of finding TDC on my engine. I have the plastic number dial, is an 1800cc dual carbs, distributor has a vacuum. I'm going to do a tune up so a guide would be fantastic. I gave statically timed my beetlebefore which was pretty simple. Thanks
Have you located the timing notch on the inner edge of the pulley? Can you post a picture of your engine, as sometimes the pulley doesn't have a notch... there is a reason for this..
Pop off that fan guard and turn the engine round by hand and the back lip where the fan belt fits into u will see a tiny notch I looked for ages and then when I was shown I kicked myself !! Failing that point your rotor arm to no 1 lead and it will be close to 0 on your skale !! When u see it you will no
