Rotor is TDC but not pointing at 1 on a 1974 c20 350?
If the distributor has been out of the truck recently, could be it wasn't reinstalled correctly. If the distributor has not been disturbed, sounds like a timing chain problem. ANOTHER ANSWER: Every time the rotor turns one complete round the crankshaft will turn twice. Knowing that, the crankshaft will pass TDC TWICE while the rotor will only point to the #1 cylinder once. If the crankshaft is at TDC and the rotor is not pointing at #1 it may just be that the rotor is pointing directly opposite. If that's the case, just turn the engine by hand, once around until it's pointing at TDC again.
How many degrees of crankshaft rotation are required for a piston to travel from tdc to BDC and return to tdc?
90
Why is the rotary button pointing at number four wire when at TDC on Honda accord?
The crankshaft turns twice for every rotation of the distributor. Turn the engine 360 degrees (once around) and it should bring up #1TDC.
Where does the timing gear marks line up on a 1998 Chevy pickup 350 Do they line up ever revolution or can they be 180 off?
The camshaft turns at half the speed of the crankshaft. If you count the gears, you should find that there are twice as many on the camshaft. If you line up the marks at TDC, then turn the crankshaft 360 Degrees, you should find that the camshaft has turned 180 degrees. So, every time the crankshaft turns back around to TDC, the camshaft will turn 180 degrees and if that's what your're seeing, then everything is normal.
What direction does the grove on your crankshaft point on a small block Chevy when its at tdc?
It will be at 12oclock stright up.
Which timing mark is TDC on a 1992 VG30E V-6 engine crankshaft pully?
The crankshaft pulley should have only one timing mark, and that is the one for TDC There are 5 markings. Looking from the front of the motor the marks start at right 15btdc, 10btdc, 5btdc, TDC, 5atdc. Top dead center will be the second marking from left then.
Setting TDC on a f150 4.9l stright 6 when timing mark is 180 degree from the TDC when timing mark is at TDC and piston down how do you get tming mark the same?
TDC is when the piston is at top dead center of the compression stroke. The easiest way to set it at TDC is to remove spark plug number one and insert a slim item such as a pencil or screwdriver into the spark plug hole and turn the crankshaft clockwise with a ratchet or breaker bar as you watch when the piston starts coming up. Remove the pencil or screwdriver and inseret your finger tip into the plug hole to feel for pressure (compression) building up. When you feel compression building up, remove your finger and re-insert the pencil or screwdriver to see when it reaches the top; the piston will be at TDC and the timing marks should be aligned. NOTE: The crankshaft rotates twice for each time the piston is at TDC.
Fiat cinquecento Engine bad starting when hot?
Could be the TDC Sensor, sometimes called the crankshaft Sensor.
What is a crankshaft tdc timing peg tool?
Here is a pic of it...You have to have it to replace the crank sensor on the newer Foeds...Jim
Where is the TDC sensor located on a 1994 Honda Accord?
inside the distributor along with the crankshaft position and cylinder position sensors
How can you tell if you have a loose crankshaft or crankshaft position sensor?
I really need to know how to tell if i have a loose crankshaft or crankshaft position sensor. Or could it be the timing belt . We just put in a new water pump but the timing belt was on TDC when we were done. PLEASE HELP !!!! Its running pretty crappy...
How does the egine make the car move?
The engine has a crankshaft that is connected to all the pistons in the engine. When the engine is running the pistons are moving up and down and are turning this crankshaft. The crankshaft in turn is spinning a shaft connected to the transmission. The transmission is turning a driveshaft that is connected to the differential which in turn is turning an axle connected to the wheels.
