Stupid question I know - but which side of the timing label/sticker on the flywheel is BTDC and ATDC. Looking at the label, the numbers go right & left off of zero in the center (30 20 10 0 10 20 30). Do I use numbers on the right of zero for ATDC? or is ATDC to the left of zero?

Re: Reading Timing Label

To the right is BTDC, to the left is ATDC. You can always check by giving it a quick crcnk of the starter to see which way the flywheel turns. It will always go from BTDC to ATDC.
