Never seen this before, but a 1952 8N tractor that I have has 4 sets of timing marks on it. 0 deg on each corresponds with TDC of each piston.
Has anyone else ever seen this?
Thanks for you time.
 
my 52 8n has two sets on the flywheel It helps you when you are adjusting valves Lets you know when each piston is at top dead center
 

Bill,
That does make sense. It would have made better sense to me if the #1 cylinder timing marks could have been marked in some fashion, for timing purposes.
Mine weren't, but I have the head off anyway so its no problem.
Thanks for your response.

While you have the head off, paint the marks associated with number one white! will make it easier next time.
