I want to adjust my rockers, but i have no comp. gauge.
I dont know if the balancer has ever been removed, so i dont trust the arrow.

Buy the tdc tool that screws into your #1 spark plug. Its the most accurate way to find tdc with our heads on.

Dude, your local parts store should be able to get you one within a day or so. Expect about ten bucks.
