My brother has been asking me to help him adjust the valves on his 07 24 valve Cummins and I'm clueless on these. The valve adjusting itself is a no brainer but I can't find a timing mark anywhere? How in the hell do you know where to put the engine to adjust it?
 
Remove valve cover rotate engine with 15mm socket on damper watch #1 intake open, as it starts to close look at the damper. There are 4 bolts 15mm. Between two of the bolts there is a dowel. When the dowel is straight up your on #1 tdc.

Just a 15mm socket on the crank? Would have expected something like a 35mm or larger.
