Depending on model sometimes there are marks on the crank. line up the
TDC mark with the bottom case split. The engine I have now has a 0 (TDC)
and a 22 degree mark. Line up the 22 degree mark and set the mags. Nice.
Not all engines have them on the crank though. Then you will just have
to break out the protracter.
