That's the impression that the manual gives. It just doesn't say how to tell where TDC is. If all else fails, I may set the #1 cylinder to TDC then note the position of the camshaft. Then I can get close to TDC on the other cylinders by camshaft position. If only all the cylinders were marked on the crankshaft pulley like #1...
