    Camshaft position for timing? NEWBIE

    Hey guys. Took me a while to get back to work. Put the distributor on the only way it would go in without me forcing it. Car would not start. Ended up looking at fuel because I was getting spark. Possibly the fuel pump needed to be primed, so I took an air hose and put it into the gas tank...

    Camshaft position for timing? NEWBIE

    Hi guys, I just changed my head gasket, but forgot to mark the rotor. I think it moved. i don't want it to be on the exhaust stroke. can i tell by looking at the camshaft position if it's on exhaust or fire stroke? In theory, I think that should work if someone knows the position. If I have the...
