One paint mark should be on the notch cut into the crankshaft. That's the one to use when setting the engine to TDC (top dead centre) and when changing the timing belt on the carburetted engine. Mine only has the one paint spot on the notch so that's what i use to check the base timing.Original owner of silver grey carburetted 1989 Festiva. 105k km as of June 2006. 140k km as of June 2021.Comment
