I got a b18ft from haz with no cam in it,

i have since picked up a cam but not sure how to find tdc to fit the cam,since tdc marks are on the cam pully:scratch:

is there a mark anywere else?

i did read about removing sparkplug and cranking engine till you feel a suction but doesnt sound very accurate.......

there is a mark on the crank pulley, also there is a plug at the front of the engine if you remove this a rod can be inserted into the crank when at tdc;)

Have you still got your timing belt protective cover? Theres a square cut out on this cover with a pointer on it, you line the cam pulley up with that.
