Hi
Can anyone tell me if the single timing mark on the pulley is TDC or 10 deg BTDC?
Thanks in advance

Hi lotus23C
Somewhere deep in the grey stuff, I remember doing a timing belt, so when the notch in the crankshaft pulley is aligned with the dimple in the cover above the pulley, the engine is at TDC, but why not take a plug out & look in the hole with a torch or use a "stick", and turn the engine with a spanner and check for TDC pulley alignment that way. :?

I'm pretty sure it's TDC
