Mk2f GT Camshaft timing In 1.4 8v 6n

Featured Replies

I've just fitted a GT Camshaft into my 6n engine, 1.4 8v (APQ) 

Ive set engine to tdc, removed old cam, placed the GT cam in same position with lobes in same direction. Put on the old 6n pulley and it's 4.5 teeth out with the crank pulley still set to tdc.

I've read on old posts this is how it should be when it's placed in, but then it times to half a tooth when turned? 

A bit confused as what that means.. 

Do I keep it at 4.5 teeth out? Or turn the cam to half a tooth out of the cam timing mark. 

Thanks.
