Just like the Beetle, you line it up with the split in the crankcase. Jake ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Wyand" <miatapaul@GMAIL.COM> To: <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> Sent: Friday, November 11, 2005 9:24 AM Subject: can't find timing marks
In trying to do a tune up on my 1984 Vanagon that is having terrible Vanagon Syndrome issues I was going to set the timing, but I find the notch on the pulley, but no marks to line it up to. I read on one site that there should be a plastic or metal (depending on year) gauge that showed where your timing is set. I have set timing on many cars before, but this has me stumped. I was wondering if this is something that might have come off of my engine and if so can it be replaced, as in are the parts available? |
