i want to do a preliminary valve adjustment on a long block and maybe install the distributor and want to know in which direction, clockwise or counter clockwise, does the stock 2.0L engine rotate, that is, as you look at the flywheel, would the engine turn clockwise or counter clockwise? when i installed the p&c's, i lubed everything up and also ask if rotating the crank and p&c's in the longblock will score the cylinders or score the bearings. many TIA
the engine is the one in the avatar but i am further along, just ordered a few of the last required pieces, triad should be the last (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

The transmission bellousing has notches both top and bottom. Paint the flywheel 180 degrees from the mark you have noticed; you can then use the paint mark to find TDC#1/#3 through the bottom bellhousing notch, and the existing mark to find TDC#2/#4.
