Sooo Mr. SmogFighter;

What I'm I looking for by removing the front Lower Sparkplugs?

Using a Mirror or do the Finger thingie. To find TDC.

Like I said in previos post we have put the Pulley on incorrectly. I have know Key showing on the Pulley to check it at the 9:00 position.

Any suggestions???

Thanks

Steve

That means, with both plugs out, keyway should be in the 9:00, tdc pointer at 1:00,

and the full face of the rotor should be against the plug holes.

Hey SmogFighter;

Nice Pic's but I don't think I want to pull the motor out to find the Keyway. Plus I like the Hammer in the bottom of the Picture. I've thought of using one of those on My Engine before but I have way to much time and money invested in this machine. (Just Drink Alot of Beer Instead).

I pulled the Pulley off yesterday and did not see any Keyway, so back on again.

I tried doing the Paul Yaw way of marking it before I reinstalled it. So when I get back My RB Holley I will set the timming up accordingly to his specs.

Any experience in his method???

Thanks again,

Steve

P.s. Is ther any other way to check the Igniters besides the Haynes way?

I'm sorry for cornfusing you. The Key is behind the LARGE bolt in the center

of the pulley assembly.

After removing the bolt, you can clearly see the keyway
