Looking to find the timing mark on Tea287305 for top dead centre? Just wondering if someone could help me on this!

First you have a TEA-20 Standard 80 or 85 mm engine made in UK, and not a TE-30. That serial number is only on a TEA-20 tractor. What are you doing? You WON'T find a timing mark on the timing chain cover or front pulley. The reason why I ask is most of the flywheels have holes indexed in them for a 1/4" pin to be inserted below the starter. This is used for getting close to TDC. Most of the holes in the flywhels are indexed 90 degree increments. The one close to to TDC is used for seting distributor and timing gear set supposedlly. It is tedious fun setting up timing gears and chian correctlly even with the manual. the easiest way is to remove the #1 spark plug and put a rag over the end of index finger and put your index finger on top of the hole where the spark plug was. Remove the coil wire out of the coil and out of the distributor. Now slowly crank over the engine, with either the hand crank or have a friend do it for you. When preeure is felt on the finger the piston is on the compression stroke and close to TDC, now use a flash light to watch for the piston as you or your friend turns over the engine by hand. Stop when the piston is at TDC. Most of the flywheels are indexed at 10, 100, 190, 280 and have not found one yet to be indexed at 0. If you insert a 1/4 pin about 4" in length in the hole on the engine housing, below the starter on the engine. You may have to rotate the crank forward a little to engage this hole in the flywheel. My flywheel was full dirt and had to use a drill. Dont chuck the drill bit in a drill motor, use by hand or attach a pair of plies. If it is the timing gears I would advise on buying a manual too do it right. Good day,
