#12482, "RE: forgot to find TDC before i removed timing belt... Problem?" In response to In response to 1
will that work? Before you take the head off youre suipposed to find TDC on the exhaust stroke by making sure the rockers are loose. Can i just get #1 to the top and line up the timing mark that way? will i be able to see if its on the exhaust or intake stroke with out the head on or does it matter... just as long as i have the head off it shouldnt matter should it?? In the manual section under Head installation, it doesnt say anything about finding TDC before you install it, it just says to line up timing marks. Are you supposed to find TDC just when you take it off for some reason?? My thinking was as long as i line the timing marks up right it should be ok (becaust the timing marks would find TDC by lining them up)... am i right?? Help...
