Can anyone tell me how to time the crankshaft balancer with the crankshaft .I have put new gears in the balancer and I cant see the marks on the crankshaft . with the counter weights down and #2 at TDC is that where its supposed to be timed at or am I misunderstanding the prosses .
 
Take a closer look. There should be a mark of some sort on the crankshaft. If not, make sure the crank is at
exact #2 TDC and the weights are parallel with the block surface when the marks on the weights are where
they should be. That should be close enough.

I did find a mark on the crank but its just a v-mark on the crank not on the gear like the pic shows
 
You're looking for marks on both the crank as well as the balancer gears. If you can't find one on the
balancer gear, make sure you don't have them installed backwards or side to side.

V-mark or slash mark, doesn't matter. Make sure #2 piston is at TDC and that balancer weights are parallel
to the block.
