Im putting a distrubutor assembly in my car(a 1995 mitsubishi mirage)i dont understand one thing: what is
top dead center? how can i
find it?
but which one is #1? i cant decide between 2 of them..
Answer
There is a mark on crankshaft pulley, that lines up with either a scale or arrow, but as long as you dont move engine while distributor is out im pretty sure the distributor only fits in one way on that engine.....im pretty sure that distributor is slot type( not gear) and can only fit one way, nomatter where the engine is stopped , you can remove it and replace it in same position, do not have to set up to top dead center
