Since I have brackets radiator and fan on my engine I just pulled the #1 plug, had my neighbor put his finger over the hole and I slid under the truck, used a long boxed eng wrench to turn the motor with the bolts in the torque converter. When compression stroke came up, you can feel the air blowing out, he then put a small screwdriver in the slot and watched it till he could tell when it stopped and started back down. I got lucky and my mark was correct. Dropped the dizzy in where it belongs and I hope to start it up sooooon!
I must admit, it helped that there is not fenders, or inner fenders on it so we could get right to the #1 plug hole.
Lots of ways to do it. You can also pull the valve cover and watch the valves.....
Good luck. Let us know how you come out. | | |
