Locating dimple on timing gear

[31Abone]

Not necassary ..just take out number one plug and with a flaslight look sideways and watch until top of piston is at top dead center,set rotor to number one,done ....much easier and quicker then fords idea ..

This above information doesn't work if the piston is on the top of its exhaust stroke. And you won't find the dimple in the timing gear at this point either. The top of the compression stroke with both valves closed is where you are going to find the timing gear dimple and also set your rotor to the number one cylinder.
