Models With Automatic Transmission

NOTE:
- The torque converter has 3 TDC No. 1 cylinder marks -arrow-, as the hole pattern for securing the torque converter allows it to be fitted in three different positions.
- Therefore it is absolutely necessary to check No. 1 Cyl. piston TDC position through the spark plug hole, if necessary turn the crankshaft an additional 120° or 240° in engine direction of rotation.

PROCEDURE
1. Set crankshaft to Top Dead Center (TDC) No. 1 Cyl marks by turning crankshaft on the vibration damper securing bolt in engine as follows:

- With transmission and engine installed, align the timing mark as noted above.





- With transmission and engine removed, the mark milled in the drive plate must align with the reference point cast on flange arrow.

2. On all models, remove cylinder head (valve) cover.





3. The camshaft jig tool No. 3268, or equivalent, must index in both shaft grooves.

NOTE: This condition is only possible every 2nd TDC position.
