Question Quick Distributor timing (rotor) question

Hello all,

I need quick verification-

On an 86 with the crank at 0 TDC firing, the right (US passenger) distributor rotor points to approx 3 'oclock position correct?

Where does the left (US drivers) rotor point at that crank position?

Thanks,
Greg

1. Turn engine in direction of rotation to TDC (Cylinder #1).
Note: Both distributor fingers point left in forward dirction in travel (Not sure if this is 3:00 or not).

Rez,

Thanks. I saw that pic of the one rotor last night, I should have read the text where it refers to boths rotors pointing the same direction. And yes, that would be about 3 o'clock position as you face the car.

Thanks again,
Greg
