im just on with rebuilding my first cossie engine and despite looking at the ford manuals about lining the arrow up with the mark on the block and the dizzy clip with the block i cant seem to see a mark on the block to line up with can anybody please point me in the right direction as to exactly where and what this mark is cos im struggling with this one ?? thanks , Danny

also ive just posted in the wanted section as im looking for 1x valve spring retaining collett as i lost one today !! anyone got a spare one ??

 

bttt

 

is it the mark for the pulley with the arrow to line up the auz shaft you cant find or is it the mark for the dizzy arm on the dizzy you cant find?

Is it the ford workshop manual you have?

 

 

its the mark for the aux pulley to line up with , i cant find one on the block , i have got the dizzy in place with the rotor arm lined up to the notch in the dizzy .

 

The mark IIRC isnt on the block itself, its a dot on the alum cover plate that goes on before the pulley.

 

ill go in the garage this aft and have a closer look , thanks

 

don't worry about the auxilliary shaft position - it doesn't matter what its orientation is, as long as the dizzy is correct

 

As above can be totally disregarded the aux shaft pulleys position, but yes it is on the aluminium housing around the shaft.
As for collet, any decent machine shop near you that does engines is bound to have some spares/odd ones kicking about, but if still stuck pm me.
