how can I see my timing mark 92 5.7

seaeagle2 · 07-02-2007, 03:19 AM

I'm trying to figure out where to look for my pointer and timing mark, I've got a 92 k1500 5.7 pu with power steering and a/c with the serpentine belt, and I can't seem to figure out where to look for the pointer and mark.

The timing pointer is mounted to the timing chain cover, just above the harmonic balancer. If you stand in front of your truck about where the drivers side headlight is, look down behind the crank pulley and you should see it. The timing mark is on the harmonic balancer, it is a notch about 1/16" wide.

indeed, the tab will look something like this:

you will probably have to clean it off to read it.

IF ours are the same, the O notch will be a bigger indentation along the "sawteeth." It's not completely even like the picture above... the 0 notch is deeper than the others.

Good luck.
