Default Need help Installing Distributor in 5-cyl. '88 90 Quattro

I bought the car and the distributor had been removed. I have a distributor to install but need some help. I searched thru the forum and it helped, but I am still not clear. First, which cyl. is no. 1? The front-most? Then this is how I understand it;

1)line up the mark on the flywheel with the opening in the bellhousing.

2) also line up the mark on the timing cover with the crank pulley (seems redundant to me but ...)

3) install distributor so that rotor lines up with mark on distributor.

I hope one of you Audi experts can confirm this for me and tell me which cyl. is no. 1. Thanks!

Default You might want to visit the 80/90 forum. This is the 100/A6 forum. A link for you.
