crank timing - MG-Rover.org Forums

to get all the pistons in line half way up the bores which position should the crank be in. IS IT pointing to tdc on the bottom cam cover OR pointing at 12 oclock.

I "think" its at 12 o'clock. However, I remove the pulley that drives the PS pump and alternator belt and use the cam-belt crank pulley instead. It has two dots punched on it - line these up with the mark on the engine.
