timing issue

[G4O LP]

I'm trying to time up my engine as its running very retarded but I'm struggling as I have an awt eaton conversion and the pulley only has one mark rather then the 2 a g40 one has any ideas on what I could do?

I assume the single mark is just for TDC, so you need to use a timing light which has an advance dial on it so you can set the light to flash at +5 BTDC

haynes says +6degrees

[hayesey]

I beg to differ 

Although to be fair, it basically says anything from 4 to 6 deg BTDC.
