Hi Guys,

 

Probably an easy question

 

 I just replaced the headgasket in my TR3 and figured that since I removed
the rockers, I should re-set the clearance.  Last time I did that, the front
apron was off and I just turned the engine over using the handcrank.  Now I
can't do that (hole in radiator/grill don't line up, probably because I have
a TR3a radiator on a TR3)  How do you turn the engine the right amount to
get each cylinder TDC?

 

Thanks,

Jeremiah
