Subject:Re: Finding TDC on I-4 Conversion, 1.9TD @ 15 degrees

Good question. What flywheel are you using?

The KEP flywheel has marks and the 15 degree adapter a hole that I
assume lines up with the marks when the engine is a TDC. I have not
installed the parts to verify this. The mark is on the back face of the
FW. I specified a 15 degree diesel kit when I ordered from KEP.
