The correct valve setting on a 358 cu. in diesel is with #1 on TDC valves on #1 intake and exhaust closed next you do both of them then skip over the next valve do the next one and the one next to it skip two do the next two so that translates to 1-2 -4-5 -8-9turn the engine over one turn to TDC again using the timming pointer in the bell housing and mark on the flywheel for this then you set 3-6-7-10-11-12 go back over it a second time just to make sure. the timming hole is located in the right hand side of the bell housing and the should be a removable timming pointer under the cover remove the cover and replace the cover bolts to hold the pointer inplace clean the flywheel off of all oil and greas and find the timming marks and use white paint to mark TDC use and long stiff screwdriver or flat tiped pry bar to turn the engine with and also keep the engine shutdown pulled to the shut down posision fuel off not sayen that it will start but it could and feed you a bar if it did stranger things have happened .
