[QUOTE="stutaeng, post: 21089, member: 6175"] I think you rotate the engine to TDC #1 on the compression stroke, then adjust your rotor pointer backwards a bit (you have to anticipate how much it will mesh and rotate forward) so that it lands on the little pointer on the distributor. At the same time, the oil pump drive has to align with the distributor shaft, so you have to look down and rotate that with a screwdriver ahead of time... I remember the complication is the harmonic balancer has TWO marks, I can't remember why at the moment. The marks are kinda near each other too. [/QUOTE]
