im changing timing gears n chain on86 f-150 fi 302 where do marks lineup at ?
86 ford f-150 timing?
Usually, you should line up cylinder 1 at TDC before taking it apart. The dot on the cam and the dot on the crank should be directly across from each other.
Make sure you correctly line up the new gears in the chain before mounting them.

I can't remember for certain anymore. Place the #1 cylinder at top dead center when you start. Makes life way easyer. Seems to me that they may line up across from each other? Either way as long as the engine didn't make any revolutions when the gears and chain were off you can just slap the new parts right in. They will only go one one way and you timing should not be off. Theoretically.
Hi
The little peen marks line up facing each other. One on the main aims at the cam gear between the teeth.
they point to one another, crank up and cam down
Line up the dots on the crank and cam so that they are directly across from each other. Turn crank to #1 cylinder @ TDC and turn cam so that both vlaves are closed.
