Trying to assure myself that I have the compression stroke. Now with timing cover off I move crank so the marks on the cam sprockets align apposing each other (one at 3 and other at 9) and also pointer on crank aligns with pointer on case (they are situated pointing to the stern), and also have the piston at TDC cylinder 1. I checked the rocker arms (Intake and Exhaust) and they are loose a tad!
I believe that is TDC cylinder 1 on compression stroke??? Do I have it right? How do I differentiate between the compression stroke and the transition between exhaust and intake? I suppose it is the position of rocker arms. Do the other marks align as well?
I did this once before and got it right, but now I am a year older, second guessing myself.
