Many thanks for all the ideas to double check.  This is going to sound like a 
newbie question, what is the correct method for finding TDC on #1?  Assume I 
know nothing (which in this case, isn't a huge leap) :-)

It is a 4 stroke engine, therefore aren't the valves on #1 closed twice per 
cycle, at TDC on compression stroke and TDC on Exhaust.  If this is the case 
aren't the valves on #6 both open at each time.  Am I missing something 
obvious?  

Sounds like I may want to figure a few things out prior to forking out 
another 200 for a starter.

Hoping I'll meet some of you at the convention this year, without a doubt the 
first round will be on me
