timing mark

[rogerowen]

Was hoping to find a timing mark notch in crankshaft pulley........but no!

Do you have a standard pulley? if you do the timing mark is a small hole in the rear flange which lines up with a pointer on the timing chain cover.

The pulley can be fitted incorrectly so if you find the mark its best to check its accuracy before starting any set up work.

Aftermarket pulleys tend not to have a mark as people fitting them are usually looking to improve performance and so want a more accurate mark than the factory provided and make their own.
