I need to time my car and I can't find the timing marks on the crank pulley. I've heard there are 3 red marks on the pulley but I can't see anything. I'm looking on the face of the pulley, where are they?

Also, I have a battery gauge I need to hook up. it has a negative and a positive wire. How do I hook it up? sorry if that's a stupid question but I tried hooking it up to the battery and melted the wires just a little bit.

 

I know this is old but.....I found 3 dashes on my b16a crank (no red dots) Do I just line the pointer up with the middle one?
thanks

 

Try to aim the light at different angles. From straight down I couldn't see ****. So I shined it down from like where the a/c compressor would have been and than I could see them easily.

The marks are white I believe, not red.

 

weird I only see 3 dashes..no white or red

 

theres 3 marks togheter and 1 mark about 3-4 inches away from those 3

the one alone is TDC

the red mark wich is the middle mark of the 3 is the 18 deg btdc that u wanna time ur engine to,
the mark by itslef is the white one

they are on the pulley lip

 

yeees , cuban b

 

oh I thought the middle one of th3 3 was TDC silly me good thing I checked
