no red no right? ???? ???? not sure wich 1 is the white 1........

pls help .. remember the engine its a d16z6

 

If i remember there should be only 4 marks on your setup. The white one by itself and then counter-clockwise from it about 1/4 crank pulley is a cluster of 3. Of the three set, the one closest to the firewall is 14deg, middle is 16deg, and one closest to the front of the car is 18deg.

 

yeah thats wut i thought, but there are 2 marks by it slef. not sure wich 1 is the white 1 tho ...

 

the mark furthest away from the 3 marks is the white mark. Even if you use the other mark, it will still line up at TDC

There is actually 5 marks....the 18 degree, 16 degree and 14 degree timing marks, and the white TDC mark with another mark which is 2 degrees cam timing from that. Either of the 2 will work and line the #1 and 3 pistons at TDC...

 

Right most is TDC. Red on the left is 16* btdc.
That's on my newly swappered Z6.

 

thnkx for the help ya'll
