    The single best practical video on how this works. Having the valves to see open and close is the best part. Am I right in thinking the timing gears marks should be alighted as well, facing each other? Also, the distributor should be pointing at cylinder 1 correct? Thanks for this video, really helped explain it. I would love to see this with the timing gears and the distributor exposed. I am replacing my timing chain/gears and have looked for an explanation like this everywhere and yours is the best.

    • @theshop392

      Dean, I would have to go back and look, for some reason I recall the timing marks do not align at TDC, they are aligned at exhaust stroke.

    I have an issue. How to you find TDC if the harmonic balancer has been replaced and it doesn't have a mark on it? There's no mark on the harmonic balance in order to align with the indicator on the engine. What's the simplest way to get it to TDC?

    • @theshop392
      @theshop392  7 місяців тому +1

      You can do it without the balancer, use your finger over the spark plug hole to feel for air (compression stroke). Then use a wooden dowel through the plug hole to feel for the piston reaching the highest point and then moving down, rotate backwards and feel for top of stroke.

    • @sarahm.2053
      @sarahm.2053 7 місяців тому

      does the piston come up twice then its the compression stroke? I thought the piston comes up once for first valve to open then down and up again for second valve to open then its the compression stroke. Or is is ok to align the distributor up as long as the piston is at the top at any time?
