yes you do get ignition dwell angle,, but he aint talking about that here, as he has a efi engine car

remember the pistons dwell at TDC for a few degrees,, and this is what he is on about (i think)

cam timing is something i dont like explaining,, as i get my words in a muddle

if you are running fiesta efi you dont need too worry about engine phase so here goes (so too speak)

remove all rocker arms ( you dont need to do this but it could save you from bending a valve,, better too be safe on your first time)

set pistons too tdc, remember that the pistons dwells at tdc so to do this you need to measure the angle the pistons seams too stop, and seems to start moving again, half this movment and you will have a true tdc, i use a bore gauge for this (which i know is tricky on a cvh)

now once you found your try tdc, fit you timing wheel too the crank and make a pointer so that it points at 0 degrees!

now read you camshaft information and find that part where it tells you full lift for the inlet and exhaust angle? (115 degrees or there about)

turn your engine too the full lift figure (guessing 115 degrees before TDC for the exhast full lift,,, 115 degrees after TDC for the inlet cam profile)

so now the crank is set of your cam timing figure say 115 degrees BTDC, place a DTI (dial test indicator) onto the exhaust lifter of number one cylinder (furthest from the gearbox),slacken bolts on vernier, now move the camshaft till you get full lift (so the lifter is as far up as it will come, using the DTI to measure this) remember the lifter will also have a dwell period so this needs too be halfed! tighten vernier!

place DTI onto inlet lifter for number one, turn crank and see if you get full lift at the right crank angle!

i check and check a few times! do not turn the crank anticlockwise when turning the crank too gain your full lift crank angles as this will put the slack side off the belt on the wrong side of the pully system and gain you inaccurate camshaft timing

if you are unsure of anything, dont do it, as engines are expensive,, and the damage you can cause by doing this wrong is sickening

i know there is other ways of doing it, (like measuring what angle full lift happens and then using the indicators on the verniers too turn too full lift, and also the method of measuring valve overlap, even balancing valve overlap on some engines) but i thought this was the simplest way

remember the cam only turns once for every 2 turns of the crank (crank phasing)

ummmm think ive covered it
