ummmm
does this even look right?
im trying to find TDC
and the UP part is up exactly like in the manual but those marks dont match up at all
after much reading and much more researching as im learning more and more about this heres how i found top dead center. i think i just want to make sure i did this right.
i watched as i turned the crank counterclockwise and watched as each of the rocker arms moved up and down. i continue cranking them until i saw the one for cylinder one start moving down and coming back up. i had my hand/thumb covering the spark plug tube til i could feel the pressure. i have a really long i think marshmellow metal toaster hahaha. i used that made sure its clean of course and had it all the way down the spark plug well. i very slowly continually cranked and watched it rise up and up. and once it stops rising. that moment is TDC for that cylinder right? and i can just continue like that with the rest of the cylinders?
the marks on the manual just absolutely dont match up. i was worrying if maybe i had the wrong size cam gear or something.
i know i sound noobish and such but im learning and just making sure im doing this all right.
id rather learn this all the right way instead of taking it to a shop and dishing out too much money
