Okay so I have the engine almost back together with just a few issues, mostly getting the cam gear back on was the most troublesome. I'm sure that others have experienced this as well on their first Cummins rebuild. Other than that it was pretty much the same as any other engine.
I have the crank and cam timing set and now it is time for the injector pump, I have watched some vids on this and can handle the procedure without any problem.
My issue at this point is, I am not sure if the timing is BTDC ort ATDC. The engine tag reads,
''Timing - TDC 17 Degrees''
Does the dash/hyphen mean BTDC?
I am a little confused because I am used to seeing BTDC if it is before. I know probably everyone on the site knows the answer to this except me so I am asking this question at the risk of showing my ignorance about Cummins engines
Thanks All,
