OK got the Pelican Valve Adj Made Easy
Got in 5th - driver side wheel in the air -- have rotor at notch. Found Paint on flywheel and notch in housing so I am close to TDC of cyl 1. I can not bend enough to see anything on the flywheel standing from the wheel behind the drivers wheel looking in the hole. Now Pelican says in Figure 11 there is a small opening you can see from under the car near the top of the transmission (? front of the engine bar I assume - found all the tin but no opening. -- you can feel it with your finger ???? (not) Now I assume you pull the covers off with both wheels on? and Pelican says you need to mark the bottom of the flywheel in the gap I can not find. Is this hole on the Oil filer side? Stuck! |

Use Cap'n Krusty's opposite valve method and you won't worry about firing order or notches.

Krusty's method was cake, worked like a charm once I got the bailing clamps off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) |

It's just like krusty's except you leave the valve covers on. No more messing with those evil bailing clamps... or at least it takes less force. |
