Moving on, I started to work on getting the engine to Top Dead Center.... I think I succeeded. That is, after my bonehead move wherein I forgot to take the car out of gear and wondered why it was so hard to turn the engine..... ha
Anyway, here is where I ended up with the marks:
Here is the line on the timing chain sprocket against the oil bar...
Here is the Kugelfischer pulley line with the timing cover mark....
Here is the crank pulley notch lining up with the mark on the lower timing cover ....
And here is the rotor pointing roughly in the direction of the notch on the distributor body....
It does appear that both valves on #1 are closed when all these marks are aligned...
Next step....take off the distributor, remove the tensioner, and deal with the crank pulley...
