How to set timing? 3.9V8
Imagine I have a new distributor to go into an old 3.9L, with no idea how to install it. Actually, I have the original distributor to go into the original engine, but no idea which way to put it back. I have read the engine needs to be TDC, compression stroke, and the rotor needs to be pointing to the #1 firing plug contact in the cap. I can position the rotor, but how do I get TDC compression stroke?
Thanks
