Finding TDC for AQ260 Engine

[sojourner]

What are the steps for being able to manually turn over my AQ260 engine to fine my Top Dead Center. Do I pull off the water pump or just the impeller? Or is there another way??

Try a remote starter switch like this one, or make your own.

Do what ever you can to not use the front crankshaft bolt for this. It is not intended to be used for this!
Try a strap wrench...... by hand.... bump starter motor..... ?????.... etc.

You'd be pulling your hair out if you were to break this bolt off.
