- Wed Sep 14, 2011 2:28 am #271827 bought a civic that needed a head gasket, replaced the gasket and now doing the timing belt, tensioner and water pump. anyway, while the belt was off the crank and/or cam got moved. now that the head is back on the block, am i safe to rotate each to TDC? the pistons have 4 relief cuts in them if it makes any difference.

- Wed Sep 14, 2011 2:38 am #271832 I dont understand what you mean by "each at TDC". You are however safe to put the crank at TDC if that is what you meant.

- Wed Sep 14, 2011 2:39 am #271834 yea, crank to TDC and cam to the timing mark. thanks

- Wed Sep 14, 2011 2:52 am #271836 Yes, you should have no problems
