Sorry guys, didn't know what forum to post this in. I am in need of a dial indicator for loan or rent in the Abbotsford area of BC, Canada.

Thanks. If posted in wrong location, please move.

You could always use a 8mm x 1mm pitch bolt screw in with engine off TDC like a gauge zeroing procedure, and then unscrew 1 turn and you have your 1mm  timing.

Gently advance engine until pump hits the screw.

If not at TDC then back off engine and adjust pump, and recheck
