    Spark plug angle

    I need to time a xlch but not by the timing mark and want to determine the piston height without pulling the head. Does anyone know the exact angle of the spark plug so I can triangulate the measurement?

    Otis!

    Math adds error.

    Heres's a gutted sparkplug with a small vinyl tube installed.
    Some oil and bubbles in the tube will rise and fall with the piston.
    TDC can be precisely located, and your degree wheel set.
