Ok, IH8 to ask such dumb questions but like I've said I've never lined the marks up EXACTLY in any 22R/E

So...

The cam TDC appears to be 7deg before crank TDC. Shouldn't I be able to pull the dist and match the dot to the cast line, slip it in and it'll be right. Right?

Once again, when the crank is at TDC and the cam is always 5-8 degrees off.

The dist goes to the cam. So, if the cam is off 7deg, then if the dist is dead on #1 then that should be it, right?
