Installing a new cloyes timing set in my 89 4.0
whoever built this motor put the cam roll pin in the wrong hole so when I get #1 cylinder at top dead center on compression stroke the timing dot on the cam gear is 180* away from the dot on the crank gear.
When I rotate the motor one revolution the timing marks line up but now I'm top dead center on the exhaust stroke.
My question is will I have any problems setting up the timing set this way:huh:
I tried to pull the cam roll pin out to install it in the other hole in the cam but it wouldn't come out so I got fed up and installed the timing set now I'm wondering if its possible to have the timing off even though the marks line up on the exhaust stroke but cam dot is 180 away from crank dot on compression stroke
