The engine can be cranked in various ways. In the first method, it is necessary to install the front side of the car on the goats. Then shift into fifth gear, apply the handbrake and spin the raised front wheel. In this way, together with an assistant, you can slowly and evenly rotate the crankshaft.
If the vehicle is on a level surface, the engine can be rotated after engaging fifth gear by pushing forward or backward (second way).
And finally, in the third method, the gearbox must be switched to neutral, apply the handbrake and rotate the crankshaft clockwise using the pulley center screw (vibration damper). It is not possible to turn the engine with the camshaft gear screw, as in this case the toothed belt is subjected to too much stress.

The piston of cylinder No. 1 is in a position that corresponds to the moment of ignition, in the event that the T.M.T. on the camshaft sprocket matches the reference mark on the toothed belt guard (bearing cap in case of AVJ engine). In the case of an automatic transmission, the picture is somewhat different.
W.m.t. mark cylinder No. 1 on the camshaft gear is visible from the front (see rendered figure). In this case, the narrow shoulder of the gear wheel faces outward (arrows).
Tags w.m.t. cylinder number 1 on the camshaft gear and crankshaft are opposite each other (arrows).
With a stepped gearbox: mark w.m.t. on the flywheel and the driven disk should be opposite the mark at the round inspection hole.
With automatic transmission: mark w.m.t. on the flywheel and the driven disk is located at the edge of a rectangular inspection hole in the gearbox housing.
The camshafts of the AVJ turbocharged engine are in the TDC position when both marks on the shafts are opposite the arrows on the bearing caps.
