Default Au3 xr8 TDC Marks

Hi All
What are the marks on the factory balancer for the 220kw balancer?
Need to change cam sync and would like to find TDC.
The marks currently on there are extremely difficult to see.(rust)
Think I can make out "20" which I would assume 20deg BTDC?

Cheers
Dazza

Default Re: Au3 xr8 TDC Marks

get some sand paper and clean it up a little, helps alot.

You will have to remove no.1 spark plug to find TDC on the compression stroke anyway so can check with a probe of some sort (nothing sharp or brittle) when the piston reaches the top before it starts to drop off again. Last thing you want is the sync sensor to be 180Degrees out lol.
