ok next Q how do i make sute it TDC by lineing up the bottom pulley with the mark on the cover, but i have 2 marks on the big pulley???
Help - Chaos - 06-08-2020
If turning the pulley clockwise the 1st mark to line up is 60 degrees before TDC (this is the mark for doing a timing belt change) the second mark is TDC.

Ah I bet it has something to do with the vvti and the single pully to 2 cams setup.
