there should be a mark on the flywheel as well for referance....
go check out the tech article @ Pelican on timing...they show a template that'll give you a good idea where to look and how to mark it.... |

ok so i read the timing for carbs tech and it mentions that the marks are tucked up on the back of the impeller? now does that make sense?
