another timing ?

[jacks01cc]

my balancer timing marks are on the passenger side and my pointer is on the driver side burried under the water pump. where is the timing point suposed to be? where is everyones marks at?

mark 0 10 and 14 deg on the balancer. Once car is running point the gun at the balancer (spout out by the way) and you will find the pulsing of the gun will highlight the timing marks on the balancer quite well.

at #1 tdc the timing marks on the balancer are on the pass side and the timing pointer is on the driver side. what side is everyones timing pointer on? this motor was in a ranger when i bought it and i'm trying to figure out what the guy was doing when he built it. it was a real hack job!!! thanks!!!

The timing pointer should be on the passenger side installed like this.

Hope this helps.

Kevin,

Can I throw those pictures in my timing write-up? Those would work perfect.

Get one of those thin tipped white-out pin at Wal-Mart or where ever and trace the numbers on the balancer. This will make timing the car a lot easier because the numbers will be a lot clearer. Or you can always buy the reflective timing tape.
