Should the number one spark plug on 2002 sebring should it be up up or down while resetting the timing?
If you are installing the timing chain on a 2.7L, the number one cylinder will not be at TDC. That is normal.If you are installing the timing chain on a 2.7L, the number one cylinder will not be at TDC. That is normal.
What is TDC for a 1991 Z28 Camaro TPI 305?
The TDC is when the number one cylinder is at the top or top dead center of the compression.
What is the 350 Chevy number one cylinder and what is the number one on distributor cap?
Number one cylinder is located driver's side front of engine. With the # 1 piston at TDC on the compression stroke, the rotor will be pointing at #1 plug on cap.Number one cylinder is located driver's side front of engine. With the # 1 piston at TDC on the compression stroke, the rotor will be pointing at #1 plug on cap.
Where is the no 1 cyl on a Chevy 350 hei dist?
Typically it is the one that points toward the number one cylinder. Technically it can be any of them as long as the wires are in the correct firing order. When cylinder number one is a tdc, the rotor should be pointing at the number one cylinder. Thus the number one plug wire.
Where is number one cylinder on the distributor on a Ford F350?
Easiest way to find it is to set #1 piston at TDC and remove the distributor cap to see where the rotor is pointing. It should be pointing to #1 cylinder position in relation to the distributor cap.
Where is no 1 on the distributor cap of a 1984 Chevy 350 v8?
there is no hard fast rule here. but typically with the cap off and number one cylinder at TDC on compression stroke. the rotor will point at number one cylinder on the engine.
If the timing mark is at tdc will the number one cylinder always be on the compression stroke in a 79 Chevy 350?
No. When the timing mark is at tdc, #'s 1 & 6 are both up. One is up for compression, the other is up for exhaust.
What does TDC mean?
if auto related it stands for top dead center and refers to the position of the crank in relation to the positon of the number one cylinder.
Where is the number 1 on the distributor?
To find where number one spark plug wire connects to the distributor, remove the distriutor cap and set number one piston at Top Dead Center (TDC). At TDC, the rotor should be pointing to where number one spark plug wire connects.
Why would your rotor be pointing at the 6 position on the distributor when the 1 cylinder is TDC?
once the number 1 piston is on tdc which ever point the rotor is facing becomes the number one position. if you conect the wires from there and follow your firing order you should have no problems.(i have done it)
In regard to engines TDC stands for?
Top Dead Center, unless otherwise specified, refers to when the piston in cylinder number one reaches the closest it can be to the cylinder head. All the valves should be closed at this point.
What is the timing gear setting for 1994 Isuzu pickup Do the arrows line up or face the other way?
I'm not sure what engine you have but on the 4ze1 which is what I have in my trooper having the arrows face both up (cam gear and crank pulley) means the engine is in tdc for the number 4 cylinder. If the arrows are facing one another it is tdc for number 1 cylinder.
