Re: Can't find timing marks
Posted by HH56 On 2016/6/24 18:01:32
Here are a couple of views of timing marks from training manuals and another of my 356 engine. The stampings are not very deep and my damper has been painted so the marks are fairly faint.
The OD may require a full disassembly. The water may have corroded or done other damage. To lock out OD in the R9 there is a sleeve which moves over splines between the planetary and another gear to lock them together to work as a unit. The sleeve has to be free to move and the water may have done something to prevent that.
The cable will probably need to come out and soak in solvent or penetrating fluid. It is a steel wire inside a steel housing and could be well rusted. Another poster found the rod and outer sleeve at the end of cable next to the clevis had rusted together on his car so another place to check. Be careful and don't try and force the knob while the cable is stuck. The housing is held to the pot metal under dash bracket by being inserted in a thin crimped section of the metal. If forced, the cable can be pushed out of the pot metal and split the crimped section in the process.
