This may seem stupid.. But, I went to check the timing, and I can't get to it. The timing marks are right up against the firewall. So, is there some trick to it? And, I hope you don't have to crawl under a running car to get to it...

The timing marks are right up against the firewall. Ahh - no. There are TDC marks on the crankshaft pulley, but they are intended to be used when setting valve lash. The _timing_ marks, which include TDC and 35º BTDC, are on the _flywheel_ and are visible through a notch in the bellhousing. |
