I am missing the 5 degre before TDC mark pointer on my L head. Any pictures of what it should look like. I am almost in time!

A quick search of this web site will yield the answer to a question asked at least every 3 or 4 months. Do you have the TDC mark? If so the 5 BTDC mark is 5 degrees of crank pulley travel before the TDC mark. Or about the width of your pinky.

Wes,

I think I have the TDC mark, but it might where the tab was attached?

I was looking for a picture to compare. I tried to search and got nothing.

It's best not to use the thread titles for searches since on all forums the thread title is very often related to only a very small percentage of the items discussed in that thread.
