Hi Mike;
All that matters is that the 0° mark is correct. Take out the #1 spark 
plug and turn the engine over until the timing mark is just about lined 
up with the 0 mark on the scale.
Slide a wooden dowel or long fireplace match into the plug hole and 
then start turning the crank towards the mark. When the stick stops 
coming up and starts going down, that's TDC. Work the crank back and 
forth until you're sure the exact point at which the stick stops moving 
and look at the scale. It should be on 0°. If not, then it's wrong and 
needs to be replaced or rebuilt.

why my
  timing is so far off?
