Worked from 7am to 10:30pm yesterday. Just replied.

The red mark on the fan transmission side is the correct mark to set the timing at,not anywhere else.
This is for a 1974.1.8L.I leave it to forum to confirm.

Which reminds me, I'd need core sensors to build off of.


Could these be made with a properly sized/threaded bolt, with a drilled out cavity and make them new?

Yeah, but the work involved is greater. Now it takes me about 15m to 'rebuild' a core and the core is free. I can buy a similar steel piece for about $15, but the threaded portion is too long so would need modification. M10x1.00 bolts aren't easy to find, although they are out there. And then there's the matter of most M10 bolts having a 15mm or 17mm head. But even if I did find the perfect bolt supplier, there's still the matter of drilling being relatively time consuming.

If this was a newer, more popular car I could have a box of blanks made up. But it's not worth it for 10-15 a year.

Arent brake line fittings 10.0X1.00 and already have a hole drilled through them?
$1.89 ea at Belmetric or many of us (like me) will have about 50 old ones laying around attached to old busted brake lines.
