yes, 1/2 turn of crankshaft for each cylinder - with marks on pulley at TDC for #1, turn crank 180 degrees and you will be TDC on #3, another 180 degrees (marks on pulley again at top) and you will be TDC on #4, another 180 and you will be TDC on #2, another 180 and you will be back at TDC on #1.

Pull spark plugs out and turn crank pulled with a long thing peace of metal resting on pistons. As the long rod of metal moves up wait right before it starts to go down that is tdc for each piston.
