I've had my engine apart and need to find TDC for #1. I do not have my flywheel on. Which of the two fan marks is TDC and which is the timing mark? One is slightly larger.
Thanks for your help

When #1 piston is at the top and the valves are closed is TDC.

on a stock unmolested 1.7 and 2.0 fan there should be a large "0"
but then you need to make sure be pulling the driver side valve cover and making sure the #1 valves are closed.
cylinder one is driver side towards flywheel.

A chopstick works very well to tell when the piston is at TDC
