Jim,

The 5-8 mark would be 90 degrees after the 1-6 mark.

The 1-6 mark is the one that should line up when finding TDC on cylinder 1, (or 6).

So the balancer outer ring has shifted, or some other abnormality.

And if you are on TDC 1, then the rotor pointing at 3, is why it won't start.

I am more concerned at why the balancer does not line up.
