Checking and Adjusting Fuel Injection Timing

6. Typical flywheel markings are as shown in
(Figure 7-24).
Note: A typical flywheel will have multiple
timing grids depending on the number of 
cylinders. Any grid and its corresponding 
cylinder can be used to check the fuel 
injection timing.
1 – 15° BTDC (Before Top Dead Center)
2 – 20° BTDC
3 – 25° BTDC
4 – Direction of Rotation
5 – TDC (Top Dead Center)
Figure 7-24
7. The flywheel shown in (Figure 7-24) is for a
Yanmar “Standard Specification” IDI engine. 
Flywheels used on some “OEM Specific” IDI 
engines may be marked differently. You should 
contact that specific OEM for information on the 
identification of the timing marks.
Note: The TDC (Top Dead Center) mark can
be identified by the cylinder numbers 
stamped near the TDC mark 
(Figure 7-24, (5)) on the flywheel.
8. If you are uncertain as to the timing degree
designation of the timing marks on the flywheel 
timing grid, you can determine the timing 
degree designation by measuring the timing 
grid.
• First measure the distance between two of the
“longer” marks on the timing grid. (They are 5° 
apart.) Then measure the distance from the 
TDC mark to the first “longer” mark on the 
timing grid. Divide that measurement by the 
distance between the two “longer” marks. The 
resulting answer will tell you how many 
degrees there are between the TDC mark and 
the first “longer” mark.
