Does anyone else have a 100 engine with absolutely no arrow or other
marking on the timing cover?  The manual seems to think that there is
some sort of mark there, but there is none on my engine.  So I get to
make my own marks, and hope that my effort to hit TDC is good enough
for a starting point.

Put something "soft" so as not to damage the piston in the spark plug hole ...Rotate engine clockwise til it bumps .. mark pullyRotate engine counter-clockwise til it bumps ..Mark pully ...TDC is halfway between marks
