Timing Question!

[Ferret]

Quick one this, just because I'm 40 miles away from the car at current... is there a TDC marking on the front flywheel? Or is there a reason why the haynes/chilton manual wont tell you how to time the crank up?

I want to check I've not accidentally knocked the cam timings out by just a few degrees.

1. There is a mark on the dampener
2. The Haynes manuals are not so good, the Chilton worthless.
Get a Bentley manual.

Bentley's are definitely the best, but rare in UK ... it took me a while to find a used one ... they really are very good, despite only covering US models ... ebay has CD imitations if you are desperate, but I don't think you can beat the real manual - if I knew then what I know now about it, I should have imported a new one from US.
