Ford 3000 Satoh 650g
Can anyone help with timing of a 650 g? There are two marks on the pulley. I would be grateful

I'd suspect one mark would be TDC (top dead center) to adjust valves with the other being BTDC (before TDC) to adjust the points.
(I am assuming the 'G' is a gas engine.)

An image of the markings would be helpful, one might just be a casting flaw or rating.

Mine, from after Mitsubishi took over Satoh, is the inside mark on the pulley. I attached the capture from the service manual for mine - if it's the same the second mark, it is the IT mark. I am guessing IT is the start of the intake stroke.

You can also pull a valve cover (guessing yours is diesel) and manually turn the crank until the first rocker is highest and then verify your marks (only if you have already drained the oil).
