I suppose a endoscope would show the timing mark if you remove the fan and radiator cowl.

I use the dial gauge to get an approximate setting, then I check the modulation at 95C and make an adjustment usning a steel rule to measure the FIP position and then calculate the movement needed to get the modulation correct.
For the moment you can ignore the setpoint/actual or you will just confuse the issue.

What timing mark would that be? There are 2 holes in the flywheel, easy to get the pin in the wrong one.

'Scuse my ignorance... Timing mark is where? on crankshaft pulley? and is that TDC and is that when the pin should locate in the correct hole?

You will look for a long time
The procedure for locating the timing hole is in RAVE.

I'm beginning to think I've maybe had the pin in the wrong hole
I'll have another go tomorrow and set modulation at 95 deg. water temp.
Thanks again everyone

The operation with the dial gauge can be done with the engine cold, checking with Nanocom requires the engine to be at 95C.I'm beginning to think I've maybe had the pin in the wrong hole

Yup I think I understand that now. Now to be sure I find the correct hole this time...
I did the timing on my son's like this,
I followed Keith's advice at the temp he suggested and then tapped the pump towards the engine block until I arrived at the 50%mark. Maybe not everyone's cup of diesel tea but it worked for us.

I had to remove the viscous fan to get the temp up but it was winter when I did mine.
Definitely is over to me. I'm sagging and drooping well these daysIf you hold the chain out horizontal you will see by the droop how stretched it is,over to you @Rubberknees ,a parting gift for a smutty response.The Enemy said we must leave early because of the delays at security,there was only a handful of people getting through FFS
Bon voyage mon ami
