Best Answer

On the Harmonic balancer there are several marks on the right the marks start at 30* BTC (Before top dead center) Going left the marks stop at 0* (TDC) you need to line this up with a mark that is just to the right of the crankshaft position sensor. One you line up the 0* mark with the mark you will have TDC.

NOTE: There are two TDC one is the power stroke and one is the compression stroke most specs require you to be on TDC compression

What are the timing marks on the 289 ford engine?

All 1963-1968 Ford 289 V8 engines had the timing mark located 45° to the left of center, with the engine at TDC. (This is the left side of the engine, not the observer). There was a timing pointer cast or bolted to the timing chain cover, and the TDC and degree marks (typically 0-12°) were stamped on the harmonic damper/balancer.


How do you reset distributor on a ford 50 motor after engine is cranked without distibutor installed?

You need to manually rotate the engine and set the number one cylinder at Top Dead Center (TDC) before re-insalling the distributor. Hopefully, you made a mark on the distributor that relates its position to the engine in orde to re-install it as it was. If you forgot to make a mark, try to remember in which direction the rotor was pointing before you removed the distributor (assuming the engine was at TDC) and re-install it as close as you can. At TDC, the rotor normally points toward the number one spark plug wire post. Follow the firing order sequence from there.
