Finding Top Dead Centre... Yep I moved my camshaft! :(
Posted: Wed Jul 23, 2014 9:27 pm
Hoping someone can over some expertise....
So I've removed my cylinder head and all ancillaries, but when removing my cambelt I also managed to move the camshaft a little .... Doh!
Ok so I'm now in the position where I want to put everything back together again but I'm a little confused on how I get my cylinder 1 at top dead centre.
Is it as simple as lining up the marks on each of the pullies with the notches on the casing? Or do I need to hand turn the engine and visually inspect something on the engine block?
Any help appreciated!

Steve
