It's coming round to service time. I need to time my engine but don't know what the notches on my pulley are. It's a stock black pulley on a 1500 single with two notches. I could be wrong but I'm sure there's 2. Any idea what they correspond to so I can tune and time

Thanks

It might help to take a picture at TDC and ignition rotor at no 1 and we may be able to help .
