Thanks Chief, I located my Clymer 1996-98 manual, for a Leak down test , it says find TDC . I'm looking for a simpler way than removing the cylinder  head cover and eyeballing the valves, or removing the timing cover .

e.g.
All cylinders will fire once within two complete crank revolutions on a four stroke engine. They won't all fire at the same time, but in two revolutions the pistons have moved through top dead center twice - once on the compression stroke, and once on the exhaust stroke ...

But how can I tell which stroke it is TDC for ??

Sorry you haven't gotten an answer.

Can you tell me what you are doing so I can find the info for you?

I can copy some shop manual pages for you and send pdf's via email. (Can also sell you a Kaw manual if you want one. I realize the postage may be serious consideration for you!)
