Timing in 1196 GMC pick up V6 vortek engine
TXgreasemonkey gave me an answer (thanks) but I'm still have problems. I'm lining up the timing chain sprocket and crank shaft sprocket. The are lined up dot to dot - the timing chain is at 6:00 and the crank shaft is at 12:00. The #1 piston is at top dead center. When I install the distribtuor, the pointer that's supposed to point at #1 spark plug terminal points in between the #1 and #3 terminal - I turned it back one tooth and it points between #1 and #5 terminal - what's the problem? How can I get it right?:cool:
