Missing Timing Mark
I went to check my timing the other day and I had a bit of a problem.
The timing mark is gone!
What do I do now?
Is there a notch cut into it where you could repaint the mark?
I am at a loss on this one.

Thanks. I will defiantly take a look tomorrow and see and feel.
The terrible question. What if I don't have the notch? I can't go by the first piston being on tdc to mark it, because the timing could be off to start with.

There should at the very least be a tiny cut or groove. I'm really at a loss when it comes up that you have no mark but there should be one.
