There is only one timing mark on my 1.8 fan. It's visible through a notch on the rear side of the fan via the inspection port. Pelican parts info says the mark is TDC. Auto Atlanta says it's 7.5 degrees BTDC in the 914 tech tips 700 book. Can someone please tell me which is correct? I need to make sure the timing and valves are adjusted properly.
