Check that TDC coincides with the mark made:
- Rotate the crankshaft backwards.
- Rotate the crankshaft again, forwards, until the dial gauge
changes direction.
- Check that the point at which the dial gauge changes
direction (zero point on the dial gauge) coincides with the
reference marks made on the crankshaft andon the
cylinder block/crankcase.
Determine top dead centre (TDC) for cylinder 1 proceeding
as follows:
- Rotate the crankshaft so that the piston for cylin der 1 is
close to TDC.
- Fit the dial gauge as illustrated in the diagram.
- Carefully determine TDC (the point at which the dial
gauge pointer stops).

Trace two marks, one on the crankshaft key (1) and one
reference one on the cylinder block/crankcase:
- Rotate the crankshaft until a movement of the pointer is
detected on the dial gauge and then make a second mark
on the crankshaft (2).
- Measure the halfway point between the two reference
marks and make a third reference mark (3) on the
crankshaft.
- Fit the dial gauge on the exhaust tappet for cylinder no.
