    Get a mechanic who knows what they are doing to help ya, timing on an engine, you don't always get a second chance......

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    I presume you mean the injector pump (not the smaller fuel lift pump with the glass bowl / priming handle ?) its not overly difficult to time the injector pump but if you hav'nt done it before or seen it being done its safer to get a mechanic, it should only take them 20 minutes

    Those marks are the timing marks, do it yourself if you know what you're doing. If not get a mechanic or you'll end up with worse than watery diesel :(
