I’ve never done my timing. This is a screen shot off a video I did with my timing light. Can someone help me so I know where my timing is set to. I’ve watched videos but it seems different because there’s no line close to the pulley. Thanks y’all

The line for TDC is what you are looking at compared to the numbers on the plastic cover.
On the 1jzgte vvti the timing is fixed, not adjustable, so it is most likely correct unless you are talking about a setting up a standalone for the first time.

I’m going to be putting a stand alone in. I just was trying to figure out how to use the timing light.
So does that picture mean my timing is at 15?

You can also see where the 0 mark on the cover lines up with a number on the pulley.
Hard to tell from the angle but looks like between 15 and 20 which sounds right for idle.

so the zero on the block is tdc?
