Mercury 115 vertical timing marks

[trihuller]

Was wondering if anyone has a picture of what the 3 vertical timing marks look like on the flywheel for proper belt alignment. From what I read this is what the arrow on the pulley cover points to. My Seloc manual doesn't show it and I want to be sure I got the belt on right. Thanks!

Forget those and do what they did at the factory - use the nibs. <br /><br />Just as the motor approaches TDC (about 2-4 degrees ahead) the little nib on the bottom 1/2 of the pulley needs to line up with the little nib cast into the intake portion of the block.<br /><br />All done.<br /><br />-W
