Title: 2.3 Timing Pointer
Post by: JohnW on June 14, 2011, 09:55:38 AM
Where is the pointer that lines up with the marks on the bottom pulley?  I was told it was on the timing belt cover, but there doesn't seem to be one on it.

It's a 1980 if that makes a difference.

That is only for timing the cam though?

Does anyone have a photo of a timing cover that has the pointer?

Just what I was looking for, thanks a lot.  Mine seems to have broken off.
