[QUOTE]Originally posted by 87 4spd GT: [QB] So the other night I decided while drinking to go ahead and start my Explorer intake install. Bad Idea, well not really everything went alright but my biggest mistake was not making sure I set the piston to #1 TDC. So now after trying numerous times to remember where the rotor was in relation to the cap, I give up. Now how is the easiest and smartest way to get piston to TDC #1 and how do I tell when its on the compression stroke too....... I know I am a " insert caption here" but I need your help. :) Thanks [/QB][/QUOTE]
