I bought a boat rather cheap and not running. But the compression checks ok (100 to 112 psi). I noticed the timing mark is at BDC of #1 (top cylinder) instead of TDC. I was wondering if maybe it has the wrong flywheel, or if I have other problems.
<br /><br />Somebody had that flywheel apart. Find TDC on #1 piston, remove the 8 bolts in the middle of the flywheel and turn it to 0 degrees. Then reassemble using red loctite on the bolts. I don't have the torque handy. You'll need to make sure the timing belt is in time. You'll need a manual. Unbolting the flywheel from it's hub won't change the timing. But it could be off from previous work and, if off by one tooth, can burn holes in the pistons.
