Re: I can't be that retarted.....can I?

of course ive seen motors where the balancer has rust and all or been overpainted on it and you need to really lightly sand the balancer to find the marks ive often used whiteout on the mark so its easier to find with the timing light. Its possible that the pointer wasnt put on or rotted off, but if thats the case you still have a problem. My advice is to determine if the balancer spun like others suggested and if not then to really inspect the balancer to see if the numbers are not there or if they are just playing hide and go seek
