What if your TDC on Chevy 350 point to one?

If the timing mark on your Chevy 350 engine points to one, it means that the piston in cylinder number one is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke. This is the point in the engine cycle where the piston is at the highest point in its travel and the air/fuel mixture is being compressed before ignition occurs.

If your engine is not running properly, it is important to check the timing to ensure that it is set correctly. If the timing is off, it can cause a number of problems, such as:

* Engine knocking

* Engine misfiring

* Engine stalling

* Reduced fuel economy

* Increased emissions

If you are not comfortable checking the timing yourself, you should take your vehicle to a qualified mechanic for service.
