Sounds like it. Put the front up on jackstands, remove the left front
wheel, and find a socket big enough for the bolt on the crankshaft
pulley. Turn it with that. This will be a two person operation but one
can be a wife who doesn't want to get her hands dirty.
Remove the rocker cover, watch for #1 cyl exhaust open & close, then
#1 intake open & close. That's to make sure you're turning in the
right direction. Then get a flashlight and look down the sparkplug
hole for the piston. When you're close, clean off the face of the
pulley and look for the timing marks.
