The proper way to find TDC #1 is to put the engine on the TDC mark. Now pull the Valve cover on the #1-2 side. The exhaust, and intake on #1 should have free play in the rocker arms. If they don't, then you are on TDC #3. If you are on #3, just rotate the engine 360 degrees, and you will be on TDC #1.
