I want to take the head off a 240 engine, I have a Haynes but the timing chain marks are not explained very well. I have trawled the past threads but to no avail.
The manual says to look out for 2 'bright' links to line up with the 'marks' on the cam sprocket.
My timing chain has one bright link, one link which is bright in the middle only and another which is not bright but with a notch in the centre.
The sprocket has numbers stamped on from 1 to 3.
What exactly am I lining up with what??? before I jam a bit of wood down to stop the tensioner moving. I really don't want to have to pull the front off yet and set the timing up if I get it wrong.
Thanks if any suggestions.
