If you take a straight edge and place it across the front engine pulley and mark it in 4s like cutting a pie in 4 equal pieces do this when you have set it on the scribed timing mark on the pulley with your timing pointer ----and 2 cylinders will be on TDC the #1 and # 6 than each time you turn the motor as you look at it from the front of the car clockwise to the next line you made on the pulley - ( 90 degrees ) the next pair of cylinders will be at TDC ( firing order ) 18436572 so if you started at #1 than the next would be #8 and #5 -- than #4 and #7 and #3 and #2 --- i hope u get this it sounds harder than it is -- think about what is going on when you do this -- now the plug wire and or a rope as some have used can be put into the cylinder but it will work better if you install it about an inch from the line as you are turning it that continue to the line as it will better fill the cylinder with the plug wire / rope droping the valve down onto the top of the piston is not a good idea for a novis -- i think you might be changing the springs maybe but we wont go their hope it works for you --- jz
