Pull the #1 spark plug out

Bump the motor over until you feel compression

then take a piece of wire (metal our solid 12ga hard wire)

stick it in the spark plug hole and turn the motor over by hand

the wire will start to move out of the hole keep moving

until the wire start to go back down STOP because that's TDC

top dead center

Hope this helps
